FireChess is built and maintained by one person — a ~2200 rapid player on Lichess and developer who got frustrated with the lack of good multi-game analysis tools. There's no VC funding, no team of 20, no enterprise sales pipeline. Just me, Stockfish, and a lot of late nights.
Your $5/month (or $59 lifetime) directly funds server costs, Stockfish engine improvements, and lets me keep building features like the ones you see here. Every Pro subscriber means I can spend more time making FireChess better instead of worrying about keeping the lights on.
I read every piece of feedback (shoutout to the r/chessbeginners crowd). If something's broken or missing, I usually ship a fix within hours. That's the solo dev advantage — no tickets, no sprints, just results.

Realistic next milestones — what I'm actively working on and what's coming soon.
Compare your reports week-over-week. See if your leak count, accuracy, and radar scores are improving with trend charts on your dashboard.
Better AI-generated explanations for why the engine's move is better — with plans, threats, and positional concepts instead of just engine lines.
Upload PGN files directly instead of fetching from Lichess/Chess.com. Export your analysis as annotated PGN to study in other tools.
Auto-generate a repertoire from your actual games. See which lines you play, where you deviate, and suggested improvements.
Save positions into study sets. Practice them with spaced repetition so you actually remember the correct moves.
Multi-student management for coaches. Share reports, assign homework positions, and track student progress.
