From break to bragging rights

Log a rack in under a minute
Pick the format, pick the players, choose bigs or smalls, and call the winner. The game hits the history — and the leaderboard — the second you confirm.

A darts scorer that keeps up with the arrows
Tap each dart as it lands — singles, doubles, trebles, bull. The board does the maths, catches busts and calls the checkout.
- 501 and 301, straight out or double out

FAQ
Fair questions
Everything people ask before their first league night.
What exactly is The Ankorage?
The Ankorage is a league tracker for your man cave, garage or games room. You create a private 'cave' with its own web address, invite your mates, and log every pool and darts game you play. It turns your casual games into a proper league with a live leaderboard, player stats, win streaks and tournaments.
Which games does it support?
Pool (singles, doubles and Kelly Pool, plus tournaments and best-of series), darts (501 and 301 with double-out scoring, high checkouts and best-leg stats), table tennis (live 11-point scoring for singles and doubles, best of 1 to 7 games) and cards & dice nights (Poker, Blackjack and Zilch — play at the table, log the winner) are all live today.
How much does it cost?
Every cave starts with a free 14-day trial — no credit card required. After that it's $4.49 AUD per month, or $199 AUD once for lifetime access. Only the cave owner pays; everyone they invite plays for free.
Do my mates have to pay too?
No. One plan covers the whole cave. Guests join with an invite link, QR code or invite code and never see a bill.
Does it work on a TV?
Yes — the leaderboard is designed as a TV display, so you can throw it up on the garage screen and let the rankings do the trash talking.
Do I need to install anything?
No. The Ankorage runs in the browser on any phone, tablet, laptop or TV. Your cave lives at its own address, like your-cave.theankorage.com, so everyone just opens the link.
Your cave awaits
Set up your cave tonight, invite the crew, and let the leaderboard do the talking.
