This looks like a neat product but until/unless its multi-DC and capable of mixing cloud/bare metal deploys I'm not sure if I see the appeal. Automation tools for simplistic scenarios are [frankly] widely available.

So today it is single data center in the case of everything but AWS. We allow you to automatically launch a ContainerShip cluster in AWS using https://cloud.containership.io. During setup you select a VPC ID, Subnet IDs, Security Groups, and AZs to launch into. In the near future we are going to fulfill your desires as we are working on features that let you easily span multiple providers or migrate between them.
