The project

Setubo built WP Tailwatch's complete security architecture: malware and database scanning with automatic cleanup, delivered through a WordPress plugin, a SaaS platform, and an API, and managed on the go from a mobile app. It gives agencies and site owners juggling many WordPress sites one place to catch security threats, malware, and downtime, and to respond from their phone instead of logging into each site.

What we delivered

Launched as an MVP in 10 weeks, then grew into a four-product WordPress security platform across web, mobile, and WordPress.
