Why Plychess?

Most free analysis sites limit you with sign-up walls, ad-gated engine depth, or games capped per day. Plychess runs Stockfish directly in your browser instead, so analysis is unlimited, private, and free for as long as you use it. Combine that with puzzles, opening guides, and PGN utilities, and you have most of what you need to study a game in one place.
