SiteStacks can find the technology used at any domain, including a set of roughly 700,000 that we’re regularly checking.

What makes the dataset unique is the combination of programmatic data (code breadcrumbs, network requests, DNS, some NLP, etc.), but augmented by data validated by users directly.

The user validated data is only available on Siftery (e.g. for sitestacks.com/uber.com you have to follow the link through to siftery.com/company/uber to see the full set), but all the programmatic methods are improved by user-validated data (e.g. if a method yields too many false positive, we bump it out).

We think this approach helps create the most accurate dataset of its kind. We’ve done some internal benchmarking and feel really good about it.

We’re looking for feedback on how this can be better, and open to partnering with others who want to make use of this data for good.

I believe product comes first.
