Added April 12, 2026 · Last analysed April 12, 2026 · via PeerPush

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 12 April 2026; the live site may have changed since.

The Founder Drop is partway there, with clean crawl signals. Worth fixing first: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and tracking cookies set before any opt-in.

Launched on PeerPush on April 5, 2026. The site is hosted on Netlify, with a domain registered 6 weeks before launch. The crawl picked up 8 technologies on this site, covering analytics, advertising, DNS providers, and hosting. The stack includes Dub, Facebook Pixel, and Google Analytics.

For context, it's running the same core stack as 1,570 other launches.
