StackScope is a free public catalogue of indie launches. We find launches on Product Hunt, Hacker News and similar feeds, then crawl each site to detect its tech stack and score it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 14 July 2026; the live site may have changed since.

ARC Desk scores highly overall, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and well-configured email security. Main gaps: missing several security headers.

Launched on Product Hunt on July 14, 2026. The site is hosted on Railway and served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 2 weeks before launch. The crawl picked up 14 technologies on this site, covering analytics, captcha, CDN, and chat widgets. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.

For context, it's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 422 launches.
