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

Damn Good Search has the basics covered well, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Visible gaps: missing several security headers, analytics without a consent banner, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Product Hunt on June 6, 2026. The site is hosted on Fly.io in the United States, with a domain registered 2 days before launch. Our crawler found 8 technologies on this site, covering analytics, baas, DNS providers, and email forwarding. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Convex.

Notably, it's one of just 5 launches we've crawled on this exact stack.

This score is based on structural patterns and is not definitive. Many legitimate sites may trigger signals, and AI-built sites may go undetected. It should be treated as an indicator, not a verdict.
