Own this Launch?

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 9 July 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Play0ad ships with the basics, with a thorough launch checklist, fast page loads, and clean crawl signals. Worth fixing first: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on July 9, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2010. We've detected 15 technologies on this site, covering javascript library, security, servers, and CDN. The stack includes WordPress, AlmaLinux, and Apache.

It's running the same core stack as 1,091 other launches.
