How is this different from Chess.com game review?

Chess.com reviews one game at a time. ChessScout looks across all your games to find the mistake you keep making — not just what happened in this one.

What does the free tier include?

Unlimited game import and Stockfish review, unlimited opponent scouts (record, openings and head-to-head), unlimited puzzles, weaknesses from your reviewed games, unlimited practice bots, Opening Trainer and Local Play, live games and tournaments, plus the Beginner Path and Chess for Kids — no card required. Pro ($5/month) adds the AI coach, AI scouting reports, personalized courses, Scan Position and AI puzzle explanations.

Will I understand the analysis at my level?

Yes. Explanations are written in plain language, not engine notation — built for players working on real improvement, not just engine output.

Does it work with Lichess?

Yes, both Chess.com and Lichess are supported.

Is there an Android app?

Yes. ChessScout is on Google Play, and it also works in any browser at chessscout.net.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, cancel anytime from your account settings — no phone call, no retention flow.
