About ChessDrills

What is ChessDrills?

ChessDrills is a chess opening training platform designed to help players improve their games by targeting their actual weaknesses. Rather than generic training, we analyze your games from Lichess and Chess.com to identify exactly where you struggle in your openings.

We then create personalized training plans focused on your blindspots, helping you fix the exact positions where you're losing rating points. Every drill, every lesson, and every training session is tailored to your specific needs.

Our Mission

We believe that opening preparation shouldn't be one-size-fits-all. Most chess players waste time studying openings they already know well or that don't fit their repertoire.

Our mission is to help chess players improve their openings by targeting their actual blindspots rather than generic training. We want to make opening preparation efficient, personalized, and most importantly—effective.

By combining game analysis with spaced repetition and targeted drills, we help you focus on what matters most: winning more games.
