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

Flyn scores highly overall, with complete legal pages, a complete set of security headers, and a thorough launch checklist. Main gaps: tracking cookies set before any opt-in and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on August 10, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel and served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 4 months before launch. We've detected 22 technologies on this site, covering analytics, advertising, auth, and baas. The stack includes Google Sign-In, Next.js, and React.

It's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 12,746 launches and more locked down than the typical Hacker News launch.
