The White-Label Magic
The white-labeled platform (i.e. that chess platform under your own website) can do magic for you! Below are some examples:
Learn how Terrian Chess Academy’s founder Brian Kidula launched his own chess platform by integrating with Chesslang and got support from Kenyan Government for this initiative.

Tournaments
Swiss Format | Quad Format | Round-Robin Format | Public LIVE | Anti-Cheating | Online Ratings | Auto-Save Games
Public LIVE
With Chesslang’s Live X, you can share the public LIVE link with parents/others and invite them to watch the tournament live from YOUR website. They might pass on the public link to their friends and ask them to watch their kids playing chess live. It’s a cascading effect for YOUR academy brand and a great way to gain a lot of traffic to your website.
And while they watch the live games, you can also add some information/Ads about your Academy – for instance, your Academy logo, upcoming tournaments, special classes, coaching camps, etc. Additionally, you can add links to your social media profiles (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube).
Automated Pairings
The pairings will be generated automatically for you. Nevertheless, you have control to remove players from the pairings (and hence the tournament) by changing their status. Tournaments also support late-joiners and exit – BYE points will be given accordingly for rounds the players were absent.

Formats & Themes
Conduct online chess tournaments in multiple formats: Swiss, Quad, and Round-Robin. You can also let the students play from the standard initial position, or a particular book opening, or form a specific position (custom FEN).
Anti-Cheating
We have a dedicated Anti-Cheating analysis engine that will analyze the games played in the tournament. At the end of the tournament, you can see the ‘Accuracy %’ metric for each player and know about the accuracy of their moves with respect to the engine moves (Engine Move vs Player Move)
Therefore, you will be able to spot unusual patterns, for instance, if an average player has a greater Accuracy %.
Online Ratings
We currently support FIDE & USCF Ratings. Upon the tournament completion, download the TRF/DBF and upload it to the federation website for rating updates.
Games Auto-Saved
The tournament games are automatically saved to the database, which you can later use for analysis.
Edit Results & Replay Games
You also have control to change the round results. And in situations where a player has a poor internet connection and is forfeited, you can replay games from where it was left, from its last-known position.
Classroom
Integrated Audio-Video | Interactive Board | Students Responses | Reference Materials | Blind Mode | Download PGN
Integrated Audio-Video
Conduct individual and group classes online with integrated audio-video. You have control over muting/unmuting the participants. Participants can ‘raise their hands’, ask for permission to speak, so that you have an interrupted online session.
Interactive Board
Keep your classes interactive and fun by using the interactive live chessboard. The moves and changes made to the board are synced immediately to the students. You can draw arrows, highlight squares, setup position, show/hide moves, show pawn structures, and even go crazy with the ‘Toggle Illegal’ feature, where you can move pieces anywhere – useful to teach the absolute beginners.
Blind Mode
You can hide the pieces for your students using the ‘Blind Mode’ and ask them to visualize positions. This is a great way to enhance their calculation and visualization skills.
Students Responses
When you make the class interactive by asking them questions, you probably wouldn’t want the brilliant kid to reveal the answer to newbies. To solve this, students can send their responses/answers to you in private such that other students cannot see them.
Reference Material
You can refer to your teaching materials during the online session. Your students won’t be able to see them. You can also quickly load a position and/or load a game from your reference materials to the live board.
Download PGN
Had a wonderful online session, but also want to save the training material/game for reuse? You can download the game with just a click!
