About Ankepai

Ankepai is 安可 (anke) — the encore the crowd shouts when the show ends — plus 派 (pai), the crowd that shouts it. The O in the wordmark is a ✦: the moment the stage lights come back on. Ankepai is the brand's English name; ENC✦RE is the wordmark, taken from the encore call rather than from the English name.

What we believe

A concert is more than three hours on stage. It's the weeks waiting for tickets, the afternoon on the way to the venue, the days replaying it afterwards — and the night you still remember years later.

What Ankepai is

Ankepai is a concert diary, developed by 杭州安可派科技有限公司.

A concert starts the day it is announced: waiting for tickets, working out which stop to go to, counting the days, then replaying what was played that night — and pulling it all out again years later. Today those things are scattered across fan threads, group chats, camera rolls and ticket stubs in a drawer. Ankepai puts them back in one place.

Before the show, Ankepai keeps every tour's stops and dates, flags the next show and counts down to it; you mark the stop you are going to, get a reminder before tickets go on sale, and can see which songs this tour plays every night. On the day, this stop's pop-ups and partner check-in points go into your own plan; once the show starts, you log it in your history. After the show, each setlist is split into main set and encore with its source marked, and the shows you have been to become a history of your own — how many shows, which cities, the songs you heard live for the first time — that can also be turned into share cards. To dig back, there is On this day, every setlist on record, and how often each song has been played and which ones have not been played in years.

Ankepai follows one artist at a time. It launches with Mayday and Jay Chou; more singers and bands who play concerts will be added one at a time.
