Hi HN,

I'm excited to share chess-notation.com, a free tool I developed that uses Google Gemini AI to convert photos of handwritten chess scoresheets into digital formats. The platform allows you to replay the game move by move on an interactive board and offers a one-click option to import the game into Lichess or Chess.com for further analysis.

Why I built this: My son has been actively participating in chess tournaments, diligently recording his games on paper scoresheets. Over time, we've accumulated a stack of these sheets, many of which are now crumpled, faded, or lost. Manually entering these games into online platforms for analysis was time-consuming and often frustrating. I wanted a simple solution to preserve and share his games effortlessly.
