Aion - The future of chess timing

I've been playing chess for years. As a developer, I kept asking: why hasn't the chess clock evolved? So I am building Aion – not just a clock, but a platform that grows with you. Starting simple, evolving through software updates to include chess lessons, board connectivity, and AI features. The free iOS app is live now (Android soon). Hardware coming via Kickstarter – a screenless clock that pairs with your phone. Vote on designs and help shape the final product: https://aionchessclock.com
