Why We're Building This

Ever feel like online chess is a bit... stuck? The same eval bars, the same dense analysis screens, interfaces that feel more like work than learning. We felt that too.

So we're building Chessiro—a place where chess feels less overwhelming and more welcoming. Whether you're just starting out or you've been playing for years, we want you to actually understand your games and see clear ways to improve, not just mountains of engine lines.

It's just the two of us working on this, covering costs out of pocket, because we believe chess learning can be better. If Chessiro has helped you and you'd like to chip in, any support means the world—it helps us keep the servers running and spend more time building features that matter.

Who We Are

Rakshit Singh

Builder & Tinkerer

I've built chess tools before, love diving deep into chess data and engines, and now I'm building a product that makes chess learning actually meaningful. Always asking "what if we made this actually helpful?"

What's Next

Reinvent Game Reports

Moving beyond accuracy percentages and blunder counts. We're building reports that show you the metrics that actually matter—how you handle key moments, where you lose focus under time pressure, and what patterns keep showing up in your games.

Pattern Insights That Connect

Our opening and endgame trainers will work directly with pattern recognition. Instead of memorizing moves in isolation, you'll learn openings and endings through the recurring themes in your own games—so everything clicks together.

Puzzles from Real Games

Fresh tactical puzzles pulled from recent tournaments and top-level games. Practice on positions that GMs are actually playing, not just computer-generated exercises. Stay sharp on what's happening in chess right now.

Train Against Your Opponents

Prepare for specific players by training against their style. Our system will analyze their games and let you practice against openings they play, positions they like, and tendencies they show. Walk into your next game actually prepared.

Bots with Real Personalities

Practice against bots that actually feel human. Not just different strength levels—bots with distinct playing styles and personalities. Face a hyper-aggressive attacker who sacrifices pieces for initiative, a cautious positional player who grinds you down, or a tactical opportunist who punishes every mistake. Each one plays differently, so you can train against the styles you struggle with most.
