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.

Take First Spot ships with the launch fundamentals in place, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. What needs work: no Content-Security-Policy, tracking cookies set before any opt-in, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Product Hunt on August 25, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel, with a domain registered the day of launch. We've detected 9 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CSS frameworks, DNS providers, and email forwarding. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.

It's running the same core stack as 14,157 other launches and tighter on security headers than most Product Hunt launches.
