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 July 2026; the live site may have changed since.

PixlPDF scores highly overall, with complete legal pages, a complete set of security headers, and a thorough launch checklist. Main gaps: incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on July 14, 2026. The site is served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered 5 months before launch. We've detected 12 technologies on this site, covering analytics, auth, CDN, and CSS frameworks. The stack includes Auth.js, Next.js, and React.

It's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 3,737 launches and more locked down than the typical Hacker News launch.
