Threepins

The daily golf game for the internet.

StackScope records what new websites are built with, the week they launch. Most we find ourselves, by watching public internet infrastructure for brand-new sites; the rest come from Product Hunt, Hacker News and PeerPush. We crawled this one for its tech stack and scored it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 1 September 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Every technology below links to its own page: which other new sites launched with it. Vendors and agencies watch those pages with Stackdar and hear about new adopters the week they ship, from £15 a month.

Threepins is largely in shape, with a thorough launch checklist and clean crawl signals. What needs work: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on September 1, 2026. The site is hosted on Netlify, with a domain registered the day of launch. The crawl picked up 7 technologies on this site, covering developer tools, DNS providers, email forwarding, and transactional email. The stack includes Cloudflare DNS, Cloudflare Email Routing, and Google Search Console.

For context, it's running the same core stack as 2,182 other launches.
