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

TVBuddy has the basics covered well, with complete legal pages. Main gaps: missing Content-Security-Policy and Strict-Transport-Security, no robots.txt or sitemap, and tracking cookies set before any opt-in.

Launched on Product Hunt on July 1, 2026. The site is hosted on DigitalOcean in the United States, with a domain registered 4 months before launch. Our crawler found 15 technologies on this site, covering email security, analytics, APIs, and baas. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.

It's also on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 3,205 launches and more locked down than the typical Product Hunt launch.
