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 8 July 2026; the live site may have changed since.

GradeHack scores highly overall, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Main gaps: no Content-Security-Policy and incomplete email security.

Launched on PeerPush on July 8, 2026. The site is hosted on IONOS, with a domain registered in 2018. Our crawler found 14 technologies on this site, covering hosting, analytics, consent tooling, and CSS frameworks. The stack includes Google, Next.js, and React.

It's also one of 86 launches on this exact stack and more locked down than the typical PeerPush launch.
