The first public release. Chess Coach is a voice-first coach you play real games against — and this is the version I'm comfortable putting in front of people.

What's here:

• Voice-first coached games. Play a full game against an engine that matches your level, and just talk to the coach — ask why a move was a blunder, what your plan is, what happens if you take. It answers out loud. Typing works everywhere too.
• Sentence-synced demonstrations. When the coach explains an idea, it acts it out on the board — arrows, highlighted squares, and moves landing exactly as the words are spoken.
• Honest coaching. The coach owns up when its own move was weak and shows you the line it passed up. And a validation layer checks every demonstration against the real position before it's shown — a line that isn't legal on the board gets rejected, never displayed.

It's early and it's built by one person. Voice input is best in Chrome and Edge on desktop and Android; text works everywhere. Found something wrong? The thumbs-down button really does get read.

More every week.
