Ficket: 追剧引擎 is software built around gathering similar information from across the web. It can be used as a customized browser or search engine, with the aim of making internet browsing more efficient. Rather than presenting itself as a conventional standalone video player, it helps users find videos on related websites and then sends them to the site hosting the selected video.
Its workflow depends on user-defined rules. Users can customize those rules or import a list through a URL, then search related websites, select a video and jump to the target site to watch it. Videos can also be bookmarked, with saved selections accessible through the homepage. Steam Workshop support provides another route for assembling a collection of websites of the same type, giving the tool a configurable, aggregation-focused design.
Its defining experience is setting up sources, searching across them, and navigating to external sites, so the page’s player figures are best read in the context of a software product with a browsing workflow.
