StackScope records what new websites are built with, the week they launch. Most we find ourselves, by watching public internet infrastructure for brand-new sites; the rest come from Product Hunt, Hacker News and PeerPush. We crawled this one for its tech stack and scored it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 30 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Every technology below links to its own page: which other new sites launched with it. Vendors and agencies watch those pages with Stackdar and hear about new adopters the week they ship, from £15 a month.

ExpenseTrackerFree ships with the launch fundamentals in place, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Worth fixing first: no Content-Security-Policy, tracking cookies set before any opt-in, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Product Hunt on August 30, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 2 days before launch. The crawl picked up 13 technologies on this site, covering advertising, analytics, CDN, and CSS frameworks. The stack includes Astro, Tailwind CSS, and Cloudflare.

For context, it's running the same core stack as 794 other launches and tighter on security headers than most Product Hunt 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.
