Memorization is not enough. Our mission is to give you tools that actually work. ChessTraining.app is designed to fix the biggest leaks in your game: forgetting your opening lines and missing tactical shots.
Our platform brings unique technology to the world of chess. From our flagship Tactics Trainer based on the proven Woodpecker Method to our proprietary NPL Engine, every tool is designed to respect your time and maximize your results.

Train like you play. Other apps interrupt you on every move with comments, or disorient you by dropping you into a random position at move 15. That's not how real chess works.
With Natural Play Learning (NPL), you play every line from the start, building true muscle memory. We hide the comments and instructions once you've learned them, allowing you to flow through the opening naturally. We only interrupt the game if you make a mistake.
From "Woodpecker" repetition to "Natural Play" logic, we don't just show you moves - we help you understand them.
Rewire your tactical brain using the WoodPecker Method.
Generate custom puzzle sets based on your rating. The system handles the admin while you focus purely on pattern recognition.
Master your openings using our Natural Play Learning engine.
Import your own PGNs or learn from community courses. We ensure you retain the lines without the boredom of rote memorization.
