Blunders.ai
Blunders.ai is an AI-powered chess training platform that turns your own game mistakes into personalized puzzles using spaced repetition. The service automatically syncs with your chess accounts, runs nightly engine analysis on new games, and identifies moves that cost material or the game. These blunders are then converted into puzzles that are scheduled for review based on your self-assessed difficulty, ensuring you drill your weaknesses until they stick. In addition to personal blunders, the platform offers thousands of generic tactics puzzles and opening study tools, all accessible for free with options to upgrade for deeper personal game analysis and coaching. The platform provides a daily review queue that mixes puzzles from your own games and a general library, all governed by a spaced repetition algorithm. Users rate each puzzle as easy, medium, or hard, which determines when it will reappear. A coach AI, informed by your game profile and recurring mistakes, explains why a move was wrong in plain English. The system also tracks your weaknesses across categories like back-rank mates or knight forks, allowing focused drills. Beyond blunder puzzles, Blunders.ai includes full opening study and bot play, making it a comprehensive training environment. It integrates with major chess platforms to automatically import games, but also supports manual PGN uploads. The interface shows due counts, session planning, and weakness trending, helping users build a consistent daily habit. The service is free to start, with a Pro tier unlocking unlimited personal game analysis and AI coach features.

Problem solved
Chess players often review their games once but fail to retain lessons from their mistakes, and generic puzzle trainers don't target their specific weaknesses. Blunders.ai solves this by automatically extracting personal blunders from played games and converting them into spaced-repetition puzzles, ensuring that players repeatedly practice the exact patterns they most need to improve, thereby ingraining correct responses and increasing rating.
