Own this Launch?

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 25 May 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.

Linear Chess is missing several launch fundamentals. Worth fixing first: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and no robots.txt or sitemap.

Launched on Hacker News on May 25, 2026. The site is hosted on Hostinger, with a domain registered in 2024. Our crawler found 3 technologies on this site, covering DNS providers, hosting, and protocol. The stack includes Hostinger, Hostinger DNS, and HTTP/3.

It's also running the same core stack as 1,294 other launches.
