Turn the game into a narrated video.

Paste a PGN from Chess.com or Lichess, or type the moves straight off the scoresheet. The helper below checks every move on a live board, then we narrate the story and send back a video you can share with one link.

Scoresheet photos: coming soon We're building OCR so you can snap the notation sheet instead of typing. It isn't live yet — for now, the move helper below is the fastest path.

Scoresheet To Video

Built for quick entry between rounds.

Type the moves as written and the helper cleans up notation, checks every move on a live board, and builds the PGN for you — so the game that gets narrated is the game that was played.

At the table Type it as written

Common scoresheet shorthand gets normalized — 0-0, lowercase pieces, missing move numbers.

On the board Every move checked live

Legal-move validation on a board preview keeps the story grounded in the real game.

Coming soon Photo-to-PGN OCR

Snapping the sheet instead of typing is in development — not live yet, and we'd rather say so.

What's PGN?

PGN stands for Portable Game Notation. In Chess.com or Lichess, open the finished game and look for "Copy PGN" or "Export PGN," then paste it here. If all you have is handwritten notation, you can type the moves directly and the helper will build the PGN for you.
