Play the machine
Chess, right here — pick a strength, pick a side, no account needed.
Eloist started as the place you bring games played elsewhere. Now it's also a place to play them. Three strengths — Casual at roughly 800, Club at roughly 1400, Strong at roughly 1900 — pick a side and go. The machine is Stockfish, dialed down honestly: the strengths are ballpark, not certified ratings, and we say so on the page.
The part that makes this more than a toy: if you're signed in, every finished game lands in your archive next to the rest of your chess. Same analytics, same mistake detection, same PGN export. A game you play here is a first-class citizen of your history.
