What we build
Computers have played chess better than any human for over twenty years, yet they still can't explain it. An engine gives the best move and a score, not the reason in words a player can use. AI chatbots talk fluently, but they guess, and they sound just as sure when they are wrong.
Chess with Me is the missing layer: explanations of chess in plain language, where every claim is backed by evidence computed from the actual position. If something can't be shown, it isn't said.
What is live today
- Play against the engine with Mira, an AI coach who gives hints, explains moves and answers questions about the position.
- Review your own games, imported from Chess.com or Lichess or pasted as PGN, with the key moments explained.
- Personal statistics from your games, and practice for basic endgames.
- Free on the web at chess-with-me.com, with no account needed to start.
How it works
- A chess engine finds the facts. Stockfish, the strongest open-source chess engine, examines the position. The same engine, settings and position give the same result on any machine, so a result can be checked by running it again.
- A language model explains them. It turns the engine's findings into plain language; it does not invent chess facts of its own.
- Players can share the work. Because results can be checked, a player's own browser can analyse their games, and our server verifies what it returns.
Business model
Chess with Me is free on the web, with no account needed — the web is how players find us. Revenue will come from a paid mobile app (a premium subscription, about $5/month), which is in development. Players can already support us today with a one-time payment through Stripe, which also pre-pays future months of mobile premium. Optional ads that players can switch off are coming to the web; our Google AdSense application is under review.
Our main cost is compute: engine analysis of every player's games, plus the language model that explains it, and it grows with every active player. Our edge is cost: we keep the compute per player low enough to charge a fraction of what coaching or other chess apps cost.
Where we are going
Next are mobile apps and deeper teaching from each player's own games. Later, a volunteer compute network for verifiable analysis, with chess as the first use.
