Analyze a chess game for signs of engine assistance. Paste a Chess.com link, paste a Lichess link, or upload a PGN.

Chess Cheat Detector analyzes the moves in a chess game using Stockfish and statistical models to identify unusually engine-like play. It does not claim to prove that a player cheated.

Results indicate statistical anomalies and should not be treated as proof of cheating.

Every position is scored by the stockfish engine on the server.

03

Features

Centipawn loss, engine agreement and position complexity per move.

A statistical model turns those features into a suspicion profile.
