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 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.

BidSonar has the basics covered well, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Main gaps: missing several security headers and no email security records.

Launched on Hacker News on August 24, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel and served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2023. Our crawler found 16 technologies on this site, covering security, ui library, ai service, and auth. The stack includes Clerk, Next.js, and React.

It's also on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 13,908 launches.
