Container: WordPress operations workflow

Container matters only if the evidence supports a paid workflow around repeatable site operations, not a list of isolated fixes. The current commercial thesis is: WordPress teams need fewer manual checks and clearer operational visibility. The entry wedge is to turn repeated site-management friction into guided checks, issue explanations, and reusable operating procedures.

Monetization

Freemium baseline check with paid automation limits, reporting, team controls, multi-site monitoring, and integrations.
