Description from store
This chrome extension automatically highlights optimal chess moves in real-time during your chess.com matches, helping you to improve your game and make smarter decisions on the board. With this extension, you'll be able to take your chess skills to the next level and dominate your opponents. Try it out for free!
Pin it to your tool bar to quickly toggle the engine, view the evaluation*, and see statistics on top opening book moves in real time.
You can also hit the 'e' key to conveniently toggle the engine and reveal the top move.
Go to the options page to change the highlight color or search depth (right click the icon -> Option).
The engine will continuously solve when it is your turn to move. It will quickly display a good move in ~1 second, but may change moves as the solve progresses and depth increases. If desired, the max search depth can be adjusted in the options.
Normally, chrome will close extension pop-ups when you click away. If you want to keep it open all match so you can keep an eye on the information, there is a trick: right click in the popup and click 'inspect'. It will remain open.
WARNING: Chess.com WILL ban your account if you use this tool excessively, and potentially your ip address after a second offense. They have sophisticated detection and know when you are making too many super human moves! I recommend using it sparingly in tough spots as a learning tool.
KNOWN BUGS:
- There are issues with pre-moving. If the move suggestion does not appear after a pre-move, re-toggle the switch to prompt the engine to re-solve.
- You cannot have more than one chess.com tab open at a time. If it detects more than one chess board, it will fail to display the move properly.
- You must not have the piece "Animation" setting set to "Arcade"
- Occasionally, stockfish raises out of memory errors and the extension completely breaks, even if you refresh the page. Fully closing and re-opening the browser will be needed in this case unfortunately. I'm working on fixing this -- let me know if you can consistently reproduce this issue.
If you have any questions, feature requests, or other bug reports feel free to email me. I am actively working to improve this extension.
Hover over opening book moves to highlight them on the board.
This extension currently uses stockfish 11, same as chess.com. I'm investigating stockfish 15 -- if you're interested in this, feel free to email me.

- (2023-05-30) Bowen Zhang: This extension is a cheating tool that uses a Stockfish engine to show the best move and the evaluation of the position on chess.com website. It also has a premium feature that automatically highlights the best move without clicking any key or button, which is even more obvious cheating. This extension is not a learning tool, but a way to cheat and hack online games. I rate it 1 star and I hope it will be removed soon.
- (2023-05-06) Suman: very helpfull
- (2023-05-04) Drake Lynn: nice, dont like the fact that you have to buy it after some time
- (2023-04-26) Darius Meyers 2021: Why are you ignoring all questions regarding auto move? Are there intentions to add it in the future?
- (2023-04-21) Антон Маценко: This extension is so strong now i can finnaly be good on chess.com Thank you!
- (2023-03-23) James Bartholomew: Using this did help, but it seemed buggy, or i could say slow. Also it is detected i used 2 accounts and got banned on both.
- (2023-03-21) OhStylerr Beats: works great but chess.com easily detects it
- (2023-03-16) jugugalu: It is pretty cool and works 100%, a glitch were users can get this unlimited is to uninstall and redownload so the trial time restarts. I would absolutly love to buy this for only $1.50. But Im also scared that Chess.com will detect this feature for future times.
- (2023-03-12) Eshok: i got banned 3 times so its not safe to use guys. but overall agreat tool but no sense to use if u get banned. also a streamer mode would be nice.
- (2023-03-11) Hein Wai Yan Tun: Would be cool if you added automove for puzzle rush or puzzles.
- (2023-03-09) PodPrikritie: I just installed the extension and it says Your free trial is up.. like how am i supposed to try it even if i wanted to pay later
- (2023-03-09) escobar: could you please add the depth selector i paid $1.99 for it
- (2023-03-03) Sean Koth: This is by far the best chess extension I've used, also the developer is super active and responsive.
- (2023-02-24) Daniel Carlson: So much fun! Yay!
- (2023-02-24) ebircs bus: apparently the developer added a toggle key, and "e" seems to enable/disable the extension. so this means you can enable it even when you used the free trial, LoL. but for this trick to work you need to move a piece, and if it still didn't work it means it's disabled xd. plz fix, not fair to people who paid 😥
- (2023-02-23) El Tigre: Everything is pretty much good about this def worth the money, the only things i would add are a auto move/ new match and maybe putting the depth slider/ highlight color in the main extension pop out, other than that its great
- (2023-02-21) Dennis Gelman: With the recent addition of the "opening book" section, this extension has become a great learning tool for those who are looking to better their opening repertoire. I've spent dozens of hours trying to remember opening theory and often forget the more intricate lines, but not anymore! For $1.99 this is an absolute steal compared to the other chess extensions on the market
- (2023-02-21) Lindy Torgerson: Love it! Works great. I like the opening book stats and seeing the engine eval bar throughout my games. Easily worth $1.99
- (2023-02-21) Kacper Koszewski: The new update has removed the bar search depth.
- (2023-02-21) Janndrey Navvarro: hi where is the slide thing where u can choose 3 to 25
- (2023-02-21) Лев Гойхфис: Сделайте пожалуйста если не трудно скрипт чтобы быстрее играть нажимая на клавиатуре; Please make a script if it is not difficult to play faster by pressing the keyboard. я бы его купил за $25
- (2023-02-20) zumbaba chiernef: Great extension in many ways, however I have 5 suggestions and 1 bug report: 1. (bug) Sometimes the extension mistakes your pieces with the opponent's pieces after one of your piece was taken. 2. Would be great if there was an option where you could press "R" or a toggle-able keybind to reset the solve incase it malfunctions. 3. Would be cool if you could add an auto-move feature that automatically moves the pieces on the board, and you could set the wait-time for each piece individually. Additionally, the wait time could go higher if the depth is also higher. 4. When paying, would be cool if you made it so that a new tab opens in chrome instead of a mini tab, looks more arranged in my opinion. 5. Would be nice if you make it so that the extension's user interface does not close when you click somewhere else, unless you re-click the extension icon. That way you know if a solve was not made and the status is idle; or make it so that you get a notification when the status is idle however it's still your turn ( a move was not made ) and there are no marked squares on the board. 6. Would be nice if you could choose how the square marks are colored from an RGB or HEX code that you add.
- (2023-02-20) One: Nice UI and very simple for movement and things. Although I didn't like the payment system, was kinda sketchy how it opened up some weird tab, would of preferred if it opened a tab on chrome instead of a full screen thing. Sometimes it glitches and says "Idle" even though it hasn't shown the move, but other than that it was pretty good especially for only $1.99USD
- (2023-02-17) dwahwuiadhwaiu dwuhwaiudhwa: Was good but after using it for a while there was a feature added where you have to pay. I have just been adding and removing the extension to avoid it, even when I was about to consider paying the price doubled. I don't think you should lock this behind a paywall, I think there should just be additional features for people that do pay.
- (2023-02-12) s4side “S4side”: Not very consistent and sometimes confuses your opponents pieces as your own. Edit: And often tries to move pieces that were just taken. The issues are more prevalent whenever I play a rapid/blitz game with my friend, but it works perfectly in bullet. Edit 2: Changed my review to 5 stars; update 1.3 seems to fix all issues. Thanks!
- (2023-02-11) burger: love it might even buy it since its only 1 dollar

Any way to make this tool stream proof? - (2023-03-13, v:2.61) Remi nite: Is there a way to pay with paypal?
I know that a lot of people including me would love to pay for the extension, the only problem is there's no paypal payment option for people who have only bank debit cards. Is there a way I could send you the money another way and get access to this? - (2023-02-24, v:2.3) Stephano Caramanica: Can't pay with paypal
I would love to support, but only have paypal. - (2023-02-22, v:2.0) El Tigre: Problem with New update
You use to be able to set the depth, making it helpful for bullet games or just making less insane moves. You removed this feature and i honestly kinda feel scammed after i payed for something being one way and it got completely changed. Please add this back
