## Description

SpeakChess turns chess opening study into something you actually do, not something you read. Pick an opening, drill the lines until they&#39;re automatic, then play them against a bot calibrated to your level - with a coach that explains each move out loud.<br><br>TRAIN THE LINES<br>Drill any opening move by move. Strict mode makes you find the right continuation; guided mode walks you through it. Your coverage is tracked per line, so you always know which part of your repertoire is weakest.<br><br>PLAY WHAT YOU LEARNED<br>Spar against a bot whose strength is modelled on real games at your rating, not a crippled engine. It plays human-shaped moves, including human-shaped mistakes.<br><br>SOLVE TACTICS<br>Over 6,000,000 classic tactics puzzles - mate in 1 to 4, and win-material - with a rating ladder that adapts to you and a four-step hint system that explains the position instead of just showing the answer.<br><br>LEARN THE TRAPS<br>Opening trap packs teach you the tricks your opponents actually play, and how to punish them.<br><br>ANALYSE YOUR GAMES<br>Import from Lichess or Chess.com, or paste a PGN, and get a move-by-move review with engine evaluation and plain-language commentary on what went wrong and why.<br><br>A COACH THAT SPEAKS<br>Spoken commentary during training and game review, with a choice of coaching personalities. Interface available in 13 languages.<br><br>SPACED REPETITION<br>Lines you&#39;ve learned come back for review on a schedule built to catch them just before you&#39;d forget.<br><br>Free to use. Optional supporter tiers unlock extra features and help keep it running.
