A new iPhone app called Gigs uses artificial intelligence to convert old tickets, screenshots, and emails into a personalized live music archive complete with statistics and memory organization.

Gigs streamlines the process of documenting concert attendance by scanning digital and physical ticket records. Users can upload photos of tickets, forward confirmation emails, or screenshot past purchases. The app's AI extracts relevant data—dates, venues, artists—and organizes everything into a searchable archive. The platform generates statistics about listening habits, including most-visited venues, favorite artists, and concert frequency. Users can add notes and photos to individual shows, creating a multimedia concert history. The app targets music fans who attend multiple live events annually and want a centralized record beyond scattered emails and photos. Gigs joins existing music tracking services but differentiates itself through its archive-building focus and historical data recovery from past tickets rather than only tracking future concerts. Available on iPhone, the app requires iOS compatibility. Pricing and additional feature details remain available through the app store.
