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 6 June 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Honest Privacy Policies has the basics covered well, with a thorough launch checklist, well-configured email security, and fast page loads. Main gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on June 5, 2026. The site is hosted on Cloudflare in the United States. Our crawler found 7 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, CSS frameworks, and DNS providers. The stack includes Tailwind CSS, Cloudflare, and Cloudflare DNS.

Notably, it's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 974 launches.
