WordPress Maintenance Radar
A dashboard for agencies and freelancers that monitors client WordPress sites for plugin updates, failed backups, uptime issues, and performance regressions in one place.
The problem
Builders repeatedly describe the need for a single dashboard to track plugin updates, failed backups, and site health across many client sites instead of checking each site manually.[5]
Proposed solution
Connect to multiple WordPress installs, ingest site health signals, and surface a prioritized action queue with update, backup, and uptime alerts plus basic client-ready reports.
