Daily chess drills for adult improvers
A 15-minute daily chess workout that actually makes you better.
For adult improvers stuck between 800 and 1800: puzzles that adapt to your rating, and a chess training plan that compounds day after day.
Why puzzles alone don't work
Puzzle grinding doesn't transfer
Rush through a puzzle set and you already know a tactic is sitting there before you even look at the board. Your actual games don't give you that hint — you have to notice it yourself, under time pressure, with no one telling you to look.
No plan — random reps, random results
Solving whatever the algorithm serves up next isn't a chess study plan, it's noise. Without a rating band, a theme mix, and a daily target, you can burn through thousands of puzzles and watch your rating barely move.
Your own mistakes are the best curriculum
The blunders in your last ten games are the highest-signal training material you own — and almost nobody goes back and drills them until they actually stick. That's the gap we're building toward.
The plan
A chess training plan built around one habit: fifteen focused minutes, every day.
Rating-banded daily workouts
Ten puzzles a day — mostly from your rating band, with a couple of stretch puzzles above and below it — so every session sits right at the edge of what you can solve.
Streaks & progress analytics
A streak counter and per-theme accuracy, so you can see forks, pins, and back-rank mates actually getting easier — not just a vague feeling that you're improving.
Drill your own games' mistakes
Import your games from Lichess or Chess.com and we'll turn your real blunders into chess drills — the most efficient reps you can put in.
Visualization & endgame tracks
Calculation and endgame technique as tracks of their own, so your chess training plan covers more than tactics alone.

Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. Today's daily drill — ten rating-banded puzzles, your streak, and your progress — is free, forever. No trial clock, no credit card. The paid plan adds own-game drills and extra tracks on top.
How is this different from Lichess puzzles?
Lichess has a fantastic puzzle database, and Everyday Chess is built on it. What Lichess doesn't give you is structure: a daily chess study plan, a streak to keep you honest, and drills built from your own games. Think of us as the workout program built on top of Lichess's gym equipment.
What level is it for?
Adult improvers roughly 800–1800. Casual, Improver, Club, and Advanced bands each get a mostly-in-band daily set, so you're stretched but rarely stuck.
When does the full plan launch?
We're building it now. Join the waitlist and you'll be first to know — and you'll lock in founding pricing (20% off for life) before it opens up.
Why do I have to find the exact move?
In this early version, each drill only accepts the one solution move in our data, even when another move also wins. It's a v0 limitation — at full launch, alternate winning moves will be accepted too.
