How It Works
Three simple steps to digitize your chess games
Scan Your Scoresheet
Simply open the ChessScanner app and take a photo of your handwritten chess score sheet. The app automatically detects the score sheet boundaries and optimizes the image for processing.
Review the Game
Our advanced AI analyzes your scoresheet image, recognizes handwritten chess notation, and converts it into standard algebraic notation, all in just seconds. After scanning, you can view your digital game and easily edit any moves if needed.
For game generation, the images of the score sheets are transmitted exclusively to our servers in Germany. Thanks to our proprietary text recognition, no forwarding is necessary. The images of the score sheets are deleted from our servers immediately after game generation.
Export & Analyze
Save your game in the app and download your game in PGN format or analyze it directly on your favorite chess platform.
