Aion

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I'm the solo developer behind Aion. I've been playing chess for years, and as a software engineer, I kept wondering: why are chess clocks still so basic? So I started building the one I always wanted. The vision is bigger than just a clock – it's a platform: • Companion app for control & game history (live now, free) • Future: chess lessons, online multiplayer, e-board connectivity • Eventually: AI features via board/piece recognition But I believe in building iteratively. Right now, the free app works standalone. The hardware version (screenless, uses your phone as display) is coming via Kickstarter. I'm running a design validation site where you can vote on which clock YOU'D actually buy: aionchessclock.com This is a passion project. Your feedback means everything. What features would make YOU excited about a chess clock? Thanks for checking it out! 🙏♟️
