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 20 April 2026; the live site may have changed since.

The Guesthouse ships with the basics, with a thorough launch checklist and fast page loads. Main gaps: no Content-Security-Policy, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on April 20, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel, with a domain registered the day of launch. We've detected 6 technologies on this site, covering CSS frameworks, developer tools, DNS providers, and web fonts. The stack includes Tailwind CSS, GoDaddy DNS, and Google Fonts.

It's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 2,463 launches and more locked down than the typical Hacker News launch.
