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 25 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.
Niche Game Guides has the basics covered well, with a thorough launch checklist and clean crawl signals. Worth fixing first: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no email security records.
Launched on Product Hunt on August 25, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 2 days before launch. Our crawler found 8 technologies on this site, covering advertising, CDN, consent tooling, and DNS providers. The stack includes Astro, Google Funding Choices, and Cloudflare.
It's also running the same core stack as 506 other launches.
