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

PenPace has the basics covered well, with a complete set of security headers, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Visible gaps: incomplete legal pages and incomplete email security.

Launched on Product Hunt on August 11, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 5 days before launch. Our crawler found 9 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, CSS frameworks, and developer tools. The stack includes Tailwind CSS, Cloudflare, and Cloudflare DNS.

It's also on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 6,880 launches and more locked down than the typical Product Hunt launch.

This score is based on structural patterns and is not definitive. Many legitimate sites may trigger signals, and AI-built sites may go undetected. It should be treated as an indicator, not a verdict.
