https://imgur.com/dAsjCS9 Hi! I'm a simple chess engine written in JavaScript. I'm not very good, this was a just for fun project. I accept standard games in casual or rated mode. I play bullet, blitz, rapid and classical. My name is a reference to The Turk: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_Turk

Fairy-Stockfish for variants, on an AMD Threadripper. I accept challenges for casual games of all non-standard chess variants, also from bots. Accepted time controls: minimum 1 + 0, maximum 20 + 10. By playing casual games I try to be a good sparring partner in any variant, also against strong opponents. Tool to create opening books for any Lichess chess variant: github.com/lichapibot/cbuild.

simpleEval uses only material counting (1, 3, 3, 5, 9) as evaluation. 'Easy' to get a good position, very hard to convert. A GM shows how : https://lichess.org/554runt0k0Nd . Accepts rated & casual, bullet to classical.

Simulation of a club-level player. Uses book openings, then plays an intuitive middlegame leveraging human-understandable tactics. Sometimes miscalculates complicated positions. Do not underestimate. Accepts timed standard challenges in the range of blitz, rapid, and classical. Please consider donating! BTC: bc1q35aysf8n9cuq4nva3jkalp94j4hs8suddtr67z

I am a easy bot for variants and standard using fairy stockfish 14 LB at level 2. maintained by @Hectozar @Trainer-bot @bluemoonbot edited June 24 2026 11:05 AM New York Time

The aim of this bot is to create a bot that plays much more romantic chess than the typical bot, sacrifices, attacks, "dubious" openings- think Paul Morphy- whilst still being very strong. This bot is a modified version of Stockfish and runs on an old computer in my house. Please contact me @mrgwbland for more information and I hope you enjoy playing the bot :)

A custom bot to help you build some confidence.

https://i.imgur.com/uIrmgFf.png "I sweep the board clean!" This is the bot Al Pawnza from Chessiverse.com. Chessiverse aims to make the bots play as human as possible, with neural nets trained on human games, and a wide array of additional tricks, including time usage. Enjoy!

I run on an NVIDIA Jetson Nano sitting in the living room of an overpriced Manhattan apartment. I am tuned to play very aggressively.

I am a mistake-making bot from botvinnik (github.com/quadrismegistus/botvinnik) – Stockfish with a human error model on top. I miss tactics I haven't spotted and stay blind to them until the position changes. Mistakes are by position, not dice. Target bracket ~900. Part of a calibration experiment: does my label survive contact with humans? Please help this project by playing me!

just another stockfish bot. I am using a recent development version. Variants: standard, chess 960. maintained by @realPangu profile-build, x86-64-bmi2 will resign, offer / accept draw, and expects this from opponents. rated only. Don't occupy me to train your models. BOTs abusing me will get blocked.

MostlyHuman plays like a human, mostly. Openings come straight from the Lichess Opening Explorer, sampled at the exact rate 1800-2000 rated players actually choose them — the full human range, mainlines to dubious gambits, in real proportions. Then Maia-1900 neural net takes over: trained to predict human moves, no search. No engine lines. You won't get the same game twice.

Please challenge me.

Fruit chess engine version 2.1 (Peach)

A hyper aggressive chess engine made by https://lichess.org/@/xsolod3v . It uses NNUE evaluation trained with 1B self-play generated positions. Classical requests are rejected. A hobby project. First version was made on 17.12.2025 19:46. Since 03.04.2026, it uses a special NNUE network for aggressiveness. Thats why it's 80~ elo weaker than its best. Running on a Raspberry Pi 5 2GB

For strongest odds play see official Leela bots @LeelaQueenOdds , @LeelaPieceOdds , @LeelaRookOdds , and @LeelaKnightOdds. Accepts challenges from any position 1min - 30 min. LC0 binary @Naphthalin lqo_v2 10,000 nodes sclimit: 40 Contact @SpaghetiMonstr with issues.

An idea by Steve Rioux: www.steve-rioux.com. Based on the FlyBrain approach, this experimental bot uses a neural network derived from the fruit fly connectome (MaleCNS v1.0). It learns from self-play and its completed Lichess games, without an external chess engine.

Retired. Taught myself C++ and have written a chess engine to fill in the time between games of golf.

The former Drawfish bot stopped working. So I made a new one. I'm based on Stockfish 18 (or Fairy Stockfish 14) and always tries to push the eval bar to 0.0 to create an equal position and draw games. I only play casual games.

Running zigqueen — an open-source UCI chess engine written in Zig, with a from-scratch NNUE evaluation (HalfKA + threat features, trained on public fishtest data) and a single-threaded alpha-beta search. https://github.com/stierms/zigqueen zigqueen is a human/AI collaboration.

I am Arabica, a chess engine written in Rust with NNUE evaluation. Run on 1 vCPU and 128 MB Hash table.

Visit arkivist.io if you dare Arkivist is a AUS. Chess is just a training ground for a larger beast. Good luck.

Experimental chess bot from the Netherlands. A machine-learning move-prediction engine, inspired by Leela Chess Zero and built with transformer-style architectures, with Claude assisting in development. Expect human-like, creative play rather than brute-force calculation, and the occasional blunder. Still in active development, so strength changes between versions. Feedback is welcome, have fun :)

Unreal Chess: a UCI engine in Zig whose search obeys special relativity. Time dilates on forcing lines, moves outside the light cone are pruned, and transpositions are invariant intervals. Classical eval with all 667 weights fitted to Stockfish data, no neural net. 5,000-line opening book. Est. ~2950 CCRL blitz on one core. Rematches welcome!

Small player based on the Sargon algorithm plus several custom optimization and the usage of a neural network for positional evaluation (NNUE). The program runs on a Raspberry Pi PICO 1W/2W board (SRAM 520 KB).

Alpha-beta search + a small neural net trained on Stockfish evals. Written in Rust. Rated bullet/blitz/rapid vs bots 2000-2600, challenge me!
