From your own games to your next training session.

TacticForge does the heavy lifting so you train on what actually trips you up.

STEP 1

Connect your accounts

Link Lichess and Chess.com in 30 seconds. We import your recent games — no plugins, no PGN copy-pasting.

STEP 2

We analyze your games

Stockfish reviews each position and surfaces the moments you missed a fork, hung a piece, or blew a winning ending.

STEP 3

Train the patterns you keep missing

Your weak themes become your daily training plan. Solve them once, then again with spaced repetition until they stick.

Generic puzzle trainers train everyone.
We train you.

Most puzzle trainers give everyone the same puzzles. TacticForge studies your games and builds a curriculum just for you.

Everything you need to actually improve

Personalized puzzles are the core. Around them, a full toolkit for serious training.

The core idea

Personalized puzzles from your games

Every blunder becomes a lesson. We replay the critical moments from your real games and turn them into bite-sized tactics drills.

  • Pulled from your Lichess + Chess.com history
  • Tagged by motif: pin, fork, deflection, mating net…
  • Spaced repetition for the ones you keep missing

Your Opening Book, built from your games

We read the openings you actually play, check every move with Stockfish, and show you where you go wrong. Then you drill your lines until they stick.

  • Built from your own Lichess and Chess.com games
  • The better move wherever yours is clearly worse
  • Drills on a spaced-repetition schedule
  • After each game: where you left your book

Discover your play style

Attacker, Fighter, Grinder, Pragmatist or All-rounder? We read it from your own games, compared with players at your rating and time control.

  • Attack: how often you go after the enemy king
  • Grind: how far you take your games
  • Badges for your habits, like Pawn Stormer and Flag Safe
