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 18 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Guides ships with the basics, with a thorough launch checklist and fast page loads. Worth fixing first: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on August 18, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 2 days before launch. We've detected 2 technologies on this site, covering CDN and DNS providers. The stack includes Cloudflare and Cloudflare DNS.
