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 17 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Hncli still has work before launch. Visible gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on August 17, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel, with a domain registered in 2022. The crawl picked up 6 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CSS frameworks, frameworks, and hosting. The stack includes Svelte, SvelteKit, and Tailwind CSS.

For context, it's one of 28 launches on this exact stack.
