Learn chess by playing it.
Play against a human-like opponent while a coach explains the ideas behind better moves. Everything runs in your browser, and nothing leaves your device.
A human-like opponent
You play against Maia, a neural network trained on millions of human games. Pick a strength that matches your level and it makes the kinds of moves people actually make, not cold engine lines.
Coaching after every move
Stockfish runs after each of your moves. The coach classifies what you played, names the idea behind it, and can show a stronger line. Step back through the game tree and try a different move any time.
