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 June 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Rux is largely in shape, with a complete set of security headers, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. What needs work: incomplete legal pages and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on June 1, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2024. The crawl picked up 11 technologies on this site, covering analytics, seo, CDN, and DNS providers. The stack includes Vue.js, Apple Business Connect, and Apple iCloud Mail.

For context, it's running the same core stack as 249 other launches and tighter on security headers than most Hacker News launches.

This score is based on structural patterns and is not definitive. Many legitimate sites may trigger signals, and AI-built sites may go undetected. It should be treated as an indicator, not a verdict.
