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 April 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Podads is missing several launch fundamentals. Main gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on April 18, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2013. Our crawler found 5 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, developer tools, and DNS providers. The stack includes Cloudflare, Cloudflare DNS, and HTTP/3.
