Editing: a «find the move» puzzle in the frame, the lesson on the timeline

From a game to a video

Analyze with Stockfish

Lines appear while the engine thinks, deeper each moment, with arrows of its best moves on the board. Import a game by a Lichess or Chess.com link or from PGN.

Every move on the timeline

The move tree is the script: moves and variations become clips on their own lanes, with comments, marks and arrows you draw.

Narrate and record

Record your voice over the lesson, or give the text to an AI voice with your own key. Subtitles are recognized on your computer.

Design the frame

Screen templates, six piece sets, board colours, transitions, effects and «find the move» puzzles.

Export for YouTube

MP4 in 1920 × 1080 with loudness for YouTube, subtitles and move sounds, or a GIF. With Pro: 4K and Shorts.

Go live

Stream to YouTube or Twitch with your board, camera and chat on screen (Pro).
