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

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

Launched on Hacker News on August 14, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 7 weeks before launch. The crawl picked up 11 technologies on this site, covering analytics, APIs, CDN, and chat widgets. The stack includes Astro, Cloudflare, and Cloudflare DNS.

For context, it's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 426 launches and more locked down than the typical Hacker News launch.
