Two years ago, SBC Innovation set out on a mission to radically change how people learn the game of chess.

To say that this journey was a linear path from start to completion would be laughable. But I don’t see this as a failure of foresight, I see it as proof of building from first principles. As they say, you make the road by walking.

Walking this road led me into territory I never expected to explore. Conversations with some of the world’s top-ranked players and industry leaders that I could only have dreamed of before. My confidence in our product only grew after each meeting.

After many steps, turns, struggles and victories, we have paved our first road together. And now, we would like to extend an invitation to chess pioneers all over the world. The early adopters, enthusiasts, coaches, and parents helping the next generation fall in love with this game. Come help shape where this road leads next.

SBC Innovation is proud to announce the soft launch of NextChess.

NextChess is now available on Web and iOS, with Android following shortly.
