Trace

The release history for Trace, newest first.

Productivity
United Kingdom Estimated origin: United Kingdom

Added August 25, 2026 · Last analysed August 25, 2026 · via Hacker News

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

Trace has the basics covered well, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. What needs work: missing several security headers and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on August 25, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare. Our crawler found 12 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, CSS frameworks, and developer tools. The stack includes Tailwind CSS, Vue.js, and Cloudflare.

It's also running the same core stack as 301 other launches.

SignalPoints
AI palette signals +5

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.
