StackScope records what new websites are built with, the week they launch. Most we find ourselves, by watching public internet infrastructure for brand-new sites; the rest come from Product Hunt, Hacker News and PeerPush. We crawled this one for its tech stack and scored it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 17 June 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Every technology below links to its own page: which other new sites launched with it. Vendors and agencies watch those pages with Stackdar and hear about new adopters the week they ship, from £15 a month.

Hextrap ships with the launch fundamentals in place, with complete legal pages and clean crawl signals. Worth fixing first: missing Permissions-Policy and Content-Security-Policy and no email security records.

Launched on Hacker News on June 17, 2026. The site is served through AWS CloudFront, with a domain registered 6 months before launch. Our crawler found 13 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CDN, chat widgets, and cloud. The stack includes Google, Amazon Web Services, and AWS CloudFront.

It's also tighter on security headers than most Hacker News launches.
