Find Your Book

Your AI chess coach

Find the chess book that fixes your weakness.

Most “best books” lists ignore the one thing that matters: how you actually lose. Jadoube reads your real games, finds the patterns costing you points, and recommends the training book or course pitched at your level.

The coach is live and free for everyone — funded by donations, not a paywall. No spam, unsubscribe anytime.

How it works

From your real games to the right book — in four steps.

1

Bring your games

Paste your Lichess or Chess.com username, drop in a single game (PGN), or upload a scoresheet photo.

2

The engine finds the leaks

A full-strength engine (Stockfish) checks every move and pinpoints where the points actually went.

3

We name the pattern

Your slips are grouped into real weaknesses — back-rank, hanging pieces, rook endgames, calculation.

4

You get the right book

We match your top weaknesses to a curated catalogue, filtered to your rating, and explain why each pick fits.

Why this is different

No incumbent chess shop does this — they are catalogue-and-cart. We are the recommendation.

Grounded in an engine

The diagnosis comes from objective evaluation, then a coach-style explanation in plain language.

Right difficulty, every time

Each title carries an effective rating range, so a pick lands where it will actually help — never over your head.

It remembers

The more games you bring, the sharper your weakness profile — and the better the recommendations.

Some recommendations link out to partner shops — currently Forward Chess. If you buy through one of those links we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. Affiliate links are always marked as such.

The coach is live

Bring one game. Get your weaknesses named, and the book that fixes them.

Books and courses are fulfilled by our partners. More partners are being added as they come on board.
