Chesstimate

Think you understand chess positions? Prove it.

Chesstimate is a chess training app built around one powerful idea: if you can accurately evaluate a position, you can find the right move. Instead of solving puzzles, you estimate the engine evaluation of real game positions, then see how close you got.

HOW IT WORKS You're shown a chess position from a real game. You estimate the evaluation (e.g. +1.2 for White) and set your confidence level. After submitting, you see the engine's actual evaluation, your accuracy score, and a detailed breakdown of what's happening in the position.
