What we found
- It publishes DMARC but no SPF record, so receivers cannot tell which servers may send its email.
- Built with Capacitor and React, the site is hosted on Railway and served through Cloudflare, with a domain registered in 2025.
- Only 4 other launches we've crawled run this exact stack.
- It blocks AI crawlers in its robots.txt but also publishes an llms.txt for them.
Built with: 25 technologies · Indie stack

How we know
FirstSited records what new websites are built with, usually within a day of going live. Most we find ourselves, by watching public internet infrastructure for brand-new sites; the rest come from Product Hunt, Hacker News and PeerPush. We checked this one in full: its tech stack, DNS, security headers and page basics. This page is what we saw on 7 November 2026; the live site may have changed since.
Every technology below links to its own page: which other new sites launched with it. Watch any of them and get every new site that uses it as it goes live, from £15 a month.
