YOUR GAMES, MADE USEFUL
CHESSLA turns your playing history into clear lessons, recurring patterns, and practical next moves.
01 / ABOUT CHESSLA
CHESSLA is personal chess intelligence built around your real games. It connects decisions across your playing history, then turns the signal into something useful for the next game.
ONE PLAYER / MANY GAMES / A CLEARER PATTERN02 / THE FIRST POSITION
Chessla began as a small terminal script built to make sense of one player's games. Reviewing a single loss could explain what happened, but it rarely showed what deserved attention next.
The useful answer lived across games: the same missed forcing move, the same rushed decision, the same position asking the same question.
03 / WHAT WE KEEP
CHESSLA turns your playing history into clear lessons, recurring patterns, and practical next moves.
Strong analysis matters. Nikola translates it into priorities a human player can remember at the board.
The work starts with positions you actually reached—not a generic syllabus built for somebody else.
DANTON MARIANO / FOUNDER & ENGINEER04 / BEHIND THE BOARD
Hi, I'm Danton. I'm building the tool I wish I had while trying to get better at chess myself.
Using the first version consistently helped me improve by roughly 400 rating points in under three months as a beginner-to-intermediate player. The number was exciting. The real breakthrough was knowing what to look for before making the next move.
I'm also the founding engineer behind shotdata.io ↗. That work taught me a standard I bring to every CHESSLA feature: complex data only earns its place when it helps someone make a better decision.
