Show HN: Cloakist (custom domains and branding for any platform)

We noticed that many big platforms don't let you add custom domains, nor your own branding.

Just a couple weeks ago, Atlassian announced that they won't be supporting custom domains for their Cloud products this year. That feature request has been open for 10+ years.

And it's not just the dinosaurs like Atlassian. Newer kids on the block like Notion, ClickUp and RoamResearch also don't offer custom domains (or custom branding).

We've built Cloakist to solve this. It lets you put any public site at a custom domain, with your own branding added to the page.

Making this has been a really interesting experience so far, from both a technical and product perspective.

Curious to hear what the HN community makes of it and what advice you may have for me.

You can find live examples, use cases and more info at https://cloak.ist if interested.

How deep does it modify the pages? Because there's tons of ways for this to break pages that are not just some static HTML.

Interesting. Tell us more about the technical side of things. How does it work on your end??
