Show HN: Backlist – an AI-generated front page for my Twitter timeline

Productivity

Added April 30, 2026 · Last analysed April 30, 2026 · via Hacker News · 60% unique tagline

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

Backlist is missing several launch fundamentals. Visible gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on April 30, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare. Our crawler found 4 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, developer tools, and protocol. The stack includes Cloudflare, Cloudflare Web Analytics, and HTTP/3.

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.
