Analyze screenshots, solve chess puzzles, and study games you've already played. Import a screenshot from Chess.com or Lichess, and the app will recreate the position for analysis. If you're using a different platform, you can tap the FEN option at the bottom of the screen to import a specific position. Once the position is ready, the advanced chess engine analyzes it and suggests the best move within seconds. Move pieces directly on the board to explore different variations. After each move, the engine automatically analyzes the new position and recommends the next best move. The Move Power indicator shows the strength and progress of the analysis. When it reaches 100%, the engine has completed a search depth of 25. The app is designed for: • Chess training • Puzzle solving • Post-game analysis • Exploring FEN positions • Studying different moves and variations Please use the app responsibly. Do not use external assistance during live games, and always follow the fair-play rules of the platform on which you play. Also available on other platforms.

Version 1 focuses on clear 2D diagrams in screenshots and printed pages. Check the crop, every piece, and orientation before analysis. Unfamiliar or shaded piece designs can produce many errors and may need substantial manual correction. Reliable physical-board recognition is not promised in version 1. Try 10 free analysis credits with your own images before buying. A credit is used only when a scanned position produces its first successful engine solution. Failed or cancelled analysis does not use a credit, and analyzing the same scanned workspace again does not use another credit. Lifetime Pro is a one-time purchase that removes this limit—no subscription. Pro does not improve recognition accuracy.
