Animated demonstration of the Italian Game: you play White, Léon explains each move, and JEV, TypeSafe’s decision engine, chooses its replies from moves proposed by Stockfish. Percentages are illustrative.

A coach by your side.

Why was my knight badly placed?

Léon

On the edge, your knight controlled fewer squares. Let’s find a more active square near the centre.

  • He explains every move

    Good move, inaccuracy, blunder: Léon explains what really happened, with an arrow showing the best move on the board.

  • He answers spoken and written questions

    Ask “what opening is this?” or “what are the threats?”. He answers out loud while you stay in the game.

  • He remembers your mistakes

    Recurring weaknesses become targeted exercises, game after game.

One board. Many minds.

Stockfish calculates. Then a decision engine chooses from the best moves, in its own style. Compare JEV, Decider, Qwen and MiniCPM on the same position, with probabilities to explore.

Gold arrows show Qwen3’s choices, just as in the game: the stronger the arrow, the stronger its preference.

Any questions?

Everything you need to know before your first game.

What is PolyMind Chess?

A conversational chess coach. Play in your browser while Léon explains your moves, answers your questions and remembers your mistakes to suggest exercises.

Do I need to install anything?

No app to install. Local models are downloaded and kept in your browser while its storage remains available. Compatibility depends on memory and browser support; larger models need a suitable computer.

What is a decision engine?

An AI model that chooses between specific options. Stockfish proposes moves, then the model evaluates them according to the selected mode and style. The scores show its preferences, without revealing its internal reasoning.

Are my games sent to a server?

Your game history and Léon’s memory are saved in your browser. Accounts and billing are managed online. JEV and coaching features that use JEV send the position or question to TypeSafe; local models compute on your device.

What level do I need to start?

None. Léon adapts to beginners and club players alike, and you can adjust your opponent’s strength from Beginner to Master.
