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 24 April 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Butterhost is early-stage. What needs work: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on April 23, 2026. The site is hosted on HETZNER-AS in Germany, with a domain registered 9 weeks before launch. We've detected 5 technologies on this site, covering CSS frameworks, DNS providers, email forwarding, and frameworks. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.

It's running the same core stack as 3,884 other launches.
