Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m GM Ankit Rajpara, India’s 36th Grandmaster. I have built Chess Learning Platform ChessNeurons.com.
Why:
Most chess players grind thousands of tactical puzzles on Chess.com or Lichess, only to get stuck at a rating plateau. Why? Because tactical puzzles only teach you forced wins when your opponent makes a huge mistake. In real games, you need positional play, long-term planning, and blunder prevention.
What makes ChessNeurons different:
* Grandmaster Courses with Videos, Material and Puzzles.
* 10 Daily Positional Puzzles: Hand-curated by a GM with deep written strategic breakdowns (no cold computer engine lines).
* Blunder Identification: Train your brain to spot subtle positional mistakes before you make them.
* GM Video Masterclasses: 70+ hours of structured video lessons breaking down high-level decision-making.
We’d love for the Product Hunt community to try it out! You can jump in with a 7-day free trial (no credit card required).

The positional puzzles are way more interesting than the usual checkmate drills, and you can feel the GM touch in how the themes actually connect to real games.

@osman293537 Thank you so much! That really hits on why we built ChessNeurons.
As a GM I have seen players get stuck at same rating because of only tactic and opening training. But in real tournament games, you spend a lot of your time figuring out the strategy.
Really glad you’re feeling that practical, game-like connection in the explanations!
Report
A training feature for tracking the specific types of positional mistakes you keep making would be really helpful, like tagging each blunder by category such as weak squares or piece activity so you can see your patterns over time instead of just solving more puzzles randomly.

This looks like exactly what most chess sites are missing. The focus on positional play over just checkmate patterns is smart. One thing that would really help me is a feature to track which themes I'm weak at across the daily puzzles, so I can revisit those specific GM-curated sections and actually see my progress over time instead of just solving randomly each day.

The daily positional puzzles are a nice touch, way more interesting than the usual mate-in-two stuff. Love that there's no paywall to at least try it out.
