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

SerialForge has the basics covered well, with a thorough launch checklist and clean crawl signals. What needs work: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and tracking cookies set before any opt-in.

Launched on Product Hunt on July 16, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel. Our crawler found 9 technologies on this site, covering analytics, frameworks, hosting, and meta-frameworks. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Google Analytics.

It's also running the same core stack as 2,249 other 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.
