Export from Chess.com, study deeper in Chessyi
Chess.com is excellent for playing. When you want unlimited local engine lines, heatmap overlays, and master-game context without burning a Game Review credit, export the PGN and open it in Chessyi.
This workflow keeps your rating and social play on Chess.com while using Chessyi as the analysis desk.
Export the PGN from Chess.com
Open the finished game on Chess.com. Use Share / PGN (wording varies by layout) and copy the PGN text, or download the .pgn file.
Any standard PGN works — rapid, blitz, classical, or daily. Clock times and annotations are fine; Chessyi focuses on moves and positions.
- Copy the full PGN including headers when possible.
- For multiple games, a multi-game PGN file also imports.
Import into Chessyi
Open Chessyi, go to the analysis board, and paste or upload the PGN. Step through the game with keyboard navigation, then toggle Stockfish when you reach critical moments.
Turn on square-control or attack heatmaps to see why a position felt uncomfortable before the eval bar moved.
Compare with master games
After you leave theory, browse Chessyi’s opening collections and GM databases in the same family. Seeing how Carlsen or Nakamura handled the same structure makes the review stick.
FAQ
Is this a free Chess.com Game Review replacement?
Chessyi is a study desk: local Stockfish, heatmaps, and a large library. It does not replace Chess.com play features. Many players use both — play on Chess.com, review deeply on Chessyi.
Does my game leave my device during engine analysis?
Stockfish runs locally in your browser. Analysis does not require uploading the game to a shared engine queue.
