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 29 June 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Cline ships with the launch fundamentals in place, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and well-configured email security. Worth fixing first: no Content-Security-Policy and tracking cookies set before any opt-in.

Launched on Hacker News on June 29, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel and served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2024. We've detected 37 technologies on this site, covering social embeds, advertising, analytics, and SaaS tooling. The stack includes Ghost, Next.js, and React.

It's on a stack we've seen on only 5 launches and tighter on security headers than most Hacker News launches.
