ChessCore
NewClaude, ChatGPT & Gemini now run the copilot

Run your entire chess academy in a few conversations and clicks.

Ask ChessCore to enrol a student, chase this month's fees, follow up trial leads or close coach payroll. It works inside your academy's own records, asks before it changes anything, and logs every step so you can always see who did what.

An owner's Tuesday: one question, twelve reminders, one approval, all on the record.

Get started
01 · AI copilot

Without ChessCore: an evening per batch writing reports and game reviews by hand, and parents who rarely see one.

An AI copilot that does the admin.

ChessCore drafts game reviews, monthly progress reports, and parent updates from real Stockfish analysis and your academy records. The AI never invents an evaluation and a coach edits and sends every AI draft, so parents get proof of progress without you writing a word.

  • Game reviews that cite the exact move and the eval change
  • Monthly progress reports drafted for a whole batch at once
  • Reminders are fixed templates you switch on
02 · Student management

Without ChessCore: guardian details, consent forms and progress history spread across notebooks and chat threads.

Manage students like a pro.

One profile per student with their guardians, contact preferences, consent forms, and full history. No more digging through chat threads to find out if a parent was informed about the latest schedule change.

  • Guardians, consent records, and contact preferences per student
  • Attendance with absence declarations parents file themselves
  • Batch view with rating trend and fee status at a glance
03 · Operations

Without ChessCore: double-booked coaches, make-up classes nobody tracks, and fees chased one message at a time.

Scheduling & Billing. Automated.

Organise students into batches, set recurring schedules, and handle make-ups and substitutions without a single calendar conflict. Invoices generate instantly and parents can pay via card or UPI from a simple payment link, while your ledger stays reconciled.

  • Recurring schedules with make-ups and zero double-bookings
  • Razorpay UPI and cards in India, Stripe for academies abroad
  • UPI AutoPay e-mandates collect fees without monthly chasing
04 · Chess data & families

Without ChessCore: games shared as screenshots, and parents asking on WhatsApp how their child is doing.

Game-sync & Parent portals.

Pull games from Lichess and Chess.com into each student profile, where Stockfish analysis tags the mistakes worth coaching. Parents sign in to their own browser portal to see attendance, dues, and rating progress without needing another app.

  • Lichess sync is first-class, Chess.com imports, PGNs upload
  • Stockfish tags the coachable mistakes in every imported game
  • Parent portals with their own login, nothing for families to install

AI guardrails

AI you can trust in front of parents

This is the exact journey every AI-written word takes before a family reads it. No step is skippable, and your name is on the approval.

  1. 1

    A game arrives

    Synced from Lichess, imported from Chess.com, or uploaded as a PGN.

  2. 2

    Stockfish analyzes

    The engine finds the mistakes and the eval swings. The AI never judges a position.

  3. 3

    The copilot drafts

    A plain-language review citing the exact moves, built only from engine output and your records.

  4. 4

    You approve, parents see

    One click sends it to the parent portal and WhatsApp. Until then, nothing leaves the queue.

Stockfish evaluates, AI explains

The language model never judges a chess position. Stockfish does the analysis, and the AI turns engine lines into plain-language coaching notes that cite the move and the eval change.

The AI drafts, a person sends

Game reviews, progress reports, and parent messages are written as drafts. A coach or admin edits and sends them; the AI never sends to a parent itself.

Numbers come from the database

Attendance, ratings, and fees in every report are pulled from your records, never generated. The AI writes the prose around facts it cannot change.

Built to be trusted with a child's data

ChessCore is designed from the ground up for safeguarding compliance, so coaches can focus on the game, not the paperwork.

The AI drafts, a person sends

No AI message reaches a student or parent without a coach reviewing and approving it first.

Consent & guardian records on file

Every communication is gated by on-file parental consent. Guardian contacts are verified before onboarding.

Encrypted, backed up daily

All student data is encrypted at rest and in transit. Automated daily backups with point-in-time recovery.

GDPR-ready, full audit trail

Every action is logged in an immutable audit trail. DSAR deletion runs in minutes, not weeks.

How ChessCore protects student data
Rows of chess boards and clocks set up in a sunlit tournament hall before a youth event

Why this exists

Built for the rooms where the next generation learns chess

Every hour a coach spends on spreadsheets is an hour away from this room. ChessCore carries the admin so your team can stand at the board, not behind a desk.

Straight answers

Frequently asked questions

Everything you would ask on a demo call, answered without the call.

What exactly does ChessCore do?
ChessCore runs the whole chess academy from one place: batches and recurring schedules, attendance and make-up credits, fee collection through Razorpay and Stripe, a chess profile per student with engine game analysis, and an AI copilot that drafts game reviews, progress reports, and parent messages from your real records. Students train inside it too: puzzles, games against AI and classmates, homework, and live classes on a shared board. Parents get their own portal for reports, receipts, and absences.
Do students practise inside ChessCore?
Yes. Students get a training portal with puzzles from a catalog of 6,095,563 rated puzzles, served on a spaced-repetition schedule with streaks and an academy leaderboard. They can play human-like AI opponents at five levels, challenge classmates, do homework, and join live classes where the coach drives a shared board. Tournaments run with Swiss, round-robin, or knockout pairings.
What does the AI do, and what does it never do?
The copilot drafts the paperwork: game reviews, monthly progress reports, fee reminders, and class recaps, all built from your attendance, rating, and payment records. It never evaluates a chess position (Stockfish does that), never invents a number (they come from the database), and never sends anything to a family until a coach or admin approves it.
Do parents need to install an app?
No. Parents get an email invite, then sign in to their portal in the browser with their own login, and the updates they care about, class recaps, fee links, and approved reports, arrive on WhatsApp. The web app can also be installed to a phone home screen straight from the browser. There is nothing to download from an app store.
We run on spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups today. How hard is switching?
That is the setup we built the importer for. Bring your student list in from a spreadsheet, recreate your batches with recurring schedules, and connect each student's Lichess or Chess.com account. Most academies are operational in an afternoon, and WhatsApp stays, it just becomes organized: reminders, payment links, and recaps go out through it instead of manual typing.
Is my students' data safe?
Every academy's data is isolated from every other academy's. Contact details, ID numbers and dates are masked, and student names replaced or shortened, before copilot text reaches an AI model; guardian consent for minors is recorded and renewable, and rating history is append-only so a student's record can never be silently rewritten.
What does it cost?
There is a free plan for a small roster with core scheduling and a daily allowance of AI game analyses, no credit card required. Paid plans start at $69 per month billed annually, and you can change or cancel your plan from the dashboard at any time.
Can I really run the academy by talking to ChessCore?
Yes. The copilot can look things up and make changes across students, batches, attendance, fees, leads, payroll and reports, using the same permissions as the person asking. By default it asks before every change; you can pre-approve routine actions, and anything involving money, guardians or minors always waits for a second authorised approver.
Can I see who changed what?
Yes. ChessCore keeps an append-only audit trail of actions by staff and by the copilot, newest first. Owners can filter it and export it to CSV.
