Chess Inform
Chess Inform runs your academy operations: student records, classes, invoices and payment proofs, Stockfish game analysis, puzzles, rating sync, and a parent portal—under your own academy URL.
Chess Inform (chessinform.com) is a .NET multi-tenant SaaS for chess academies. Each academy gets an isolated tenant (for example /your-academy) with roles for Academy Owner, Coach, Student, and Parent—plus optional tournament tools when enabled.
Classes and attendance, courses and homework, puzzle of the day (levels 1–4), coach-created puzzles, PGN import, and Stockfish engine review with mistake classification.
Student billing: invoices, partial payments, receipts, late fees, and parent-uploaded payment proofs (PDF/JPG) for staff approval. Announcements, social feed, and email templates included.
Student dashboards with Lichess, Chess.com, and FIDE rating fields, game-history sync, style metrics, progress reports, and parent-visible fees and receipts.

Whether you run an academy, coach talent, or support a student—Chess Inform keeps training and operations in sync.
Academy Owners and Coaches manage students, classes, attendance, courses, puzzles, and billing. Coaches can view payments; Owners/Admins create invoices and approve payment proofs.
Students train with coaches and track progress. Parents stay informed with attendance, announcements, and payment visibility.
Start in minutes. Invite your team. Grow with data.
Register as Academy, Organizer, or Player. Academies get a tenant slug URL and Owner role; Stripe checkout is available for paid plans.
Add coaches and students, link parents, create classes, take attendance, assign puzzles and homework.
