StackScope
Hey all, I built StackScope, a crawler/catalogue that looks at new product launches and shows what they were built with. It watches launches from Product Hunt, Show HN, and PeerPush, then crawls the public site behind each one. The goal is to show what people actually launched with: hosting, frameworks, analytics, DNS, security headers, legal pages, AI-builder signals, and other public clues. I started building it because most stack-detection sites look at the web as a whole. I was more interested in the current indie launch scene: what people are choosing right now, at the point they…
StackScope launched on August 8, 2026 with 120 votes, #278 of 23,274 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches.
In plain words
StackScope is a crawler and catalogue that analyzes new product launches from Product Hunt, Show HN, and PeerPush to identify their underlying technology stacks. It examines over 40,000 indie launches and detects hosting providers, frameworks, analytics tools, DNS services, security headers, and other publicly visible infrastructure. Built for developers and indie founders interested in what technologies peers are choosing at launch, it uses .NET and Playwright to crawl live sites while respecting robots.txt and identifying itself as a bot.

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
