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.

Askfutures looks production-ready overall, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Main gaps: missing several security headers, tracking cookies set before any opt-in, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on June 29, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 6 months before launch. We've detected 12 technologies on this site, covering affiliate, analytics, auth, and CDN. The stack includes Clerk, Next.js, and React.

It's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 3,102 launches.
