Who is Chessmate for?

Chessmate is built for players who already play online but keep losing ground in the first ten moves, particularly beginners to intermediate players who find openings feel like guesswork.

How is Chessmate different from videos and opening books?

Videos explain openings while Chessmate makes you answer. Opening lines are trained move by move on the board, and due positions return on a spaced schedule so the right move is easier to recall.

Can I try Chessmate before paying?

Yes. Chessmate is free to download, and one course of your choice is fully free, so you can train openings before you decide.

Which devices does Chessmate support?

Chessmate is available for iPhone on the App Store and for Android on Google Play.

Do I have to memorize huge amounts of theory?

Courses focus on practical repertoire lines and key branches with short notes on why important moves are played. The goal is to make each line stick as a position and idea.
