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.

Tie Guy is partway there, with complete legal pages and a thorough launch checklist. What needs work: missing several security headers, no robots.txt, and tracking cookies set before any opt-in.

Launched on Product Hunt on July 14, 2026. The site is hosted on Amazon.com in the United States, with a domain registered in 2024. The crawl picked up 16 technologies on this site, covering javascript library, analytics, baas, and CSS frameworks. The stack includes Bootstrap, Vue.js, and Apache.

For context, it's on a stack we've seen on only 3 launches.

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.
