Checkup Chess Finds the Mistakes You Keep Making

checkupchess.com Observed source
Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A chess-analysis tool that identifies the move that swung each Chess.com game and reports recurring mistakes across a player's games.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

Field notes

The page separates analysis into three jobs: Stockfish evaluates positions at fixed depth 15, deterministic code calculates statistics and thresholds, and a language model turns an already-found engine line into prose. It also says every move named in an explanation is checked against the actual position, while the displayed report anonymises players and is generated from a public game. Chess.com import is marked shipped; Lichess import and user accounts are not built.
