Chess Goat
Terms
In short. These terms cover buying a Chess Goat report and the Goat Pass subscription. A Chess Goat report is an engine-based analysis of the public games of one chess.com account, emailed to you as a link, usually within about an hour and a half. If Chess Goat can’t deliver your report, or the report is wrong, you get a full refund. Goat Pass renews monthly or yearly until you cancel. The details are below.
What are you buying?
A Chess Goat report is a one-time analysis of the public games of one chess.com account, delivered as a private web page. It costs $5 at launch (list price $10), paid once. The report itself never renews; Goat Pass, below, is a separate subscription.
How is the report delivered?
After you pay, we analyze the games with the Stockfish chess engine and email you a link to your report, usually within about an hour and a half. If it takes longer, or we can’t analyze the account, we email you.
What is the report, and what isn’t it?
The report is an engine-based analysis with statistics and training suggestions. Engine evaluations, mistake categories and significance tests are estimates. The report is not a guarantee of any rating gain.
What is your part?
Give us a chess.com username whose games you’re happy to have analyzed. The games are public on chess.com, but please don’t use Chess Goat to harass other players.
How do payments and refunds work?
Payments are processed by Stripe. If we can’t deliver your report, or the report is wrong, we refund you in full. See the refund policy.
How does the Goat Pass subscription work?
Goat Pass is a subscription to our lessons and puzzles: $5 a month or $39 a year. It renews automatically at the end of each month or year, depending on the plan you chose, until you cancel. You can switch plans or cancel any time from “Manage” on the Learn page; you keep access until the end of the period you paid for. See Refunds for the 7-day money-back guarantee. Puzzles come from the Lichess puzzle database (public domain, CC0).
