Application Description
Effortlessly Digitize Your Chess Games with Our Score Sheet Scanner
Scan your score sheets to digitize your games.
Our innovative app extracts text from your score sheets to generate digital versions of your chess games. After scanning, you'll see an overview displaying the score sheet alongside the generated moves. If any moves are misrecognized, you can easily correct them using our intuitive move suggestions feature.
Once your game is digitized, you have multiple options at your fingertips. You can categorize your games into tournaments, analyze them on platforms like Lichess or Chess.com, or export them as PGN files for further study or sharing.
Scanning the Score Sheets
Capturing your score sheets is simple and flexible. Use our integrated scanner or select images from your gallery. The app adeptly extracts the score sheet directly from the image, ensuring accuracy.
For tournament directors, our app supports specifying score sheets for both White and Black players. You can upload up to two score sheets per player, and during game generation, both versions are considered to enhance accuracy.
Generate Game
After scanning, you can immediately generate the game. Alternatively, if you prefer, manually overlay the move grid for precise control.
Supported Notations
Our app supports a wide range of notations, ensuring global usability:
- English: N/B/R/Q/K
- German: S/L/T/D/K
- Dutch: P/L/T/D/K
- Spanish/Italian: C/A/T/D/R
- French: C/F/T/D/R
- Portuguese: C/B/T/D/R
- Czech/Slovak: J/S/V/D/K
For other notations, our model-based analysis may be less accurate, but we strive to accommodate various formats.
Game Generation
To generate your game, your score sheets are sent to our servers. The time taken can vary based on the legibility of the score sheet, the length of the game, and your internet connection, typically ranging from 1 to 10 seconds.
Overview of the Generated Game
The overview displays the score sheet columns with the corresponding generated moves. Each move's background color indicates the confidence level of recognition. Tap on any move to see the chess position and explore alternative move suggestions.
Move Suggestions
If a move is misrecognized, our move suggestions feature allows quick and easy corrections. Suggestions are ranked by probability, and you can refine them by filtering on the piece to be moved. After making changes, regenerate the game from the current move.
Missed or Crossed-Out Moves on the Score Sheet?
No worries! In the game overview, you can skip or insert moves as needed, then regenerate the game with your adjustments.
