About Joust

Bridging Two Worlds of Chess

Joust was born from a simple observation: while online chess players enjoy automatic game archives and instant analysis, over-the-board (OTB) players often lose their games to time, with no digital record of their brilliant combinations or hard-fought battles.

The Digital Divide in Chess

Every chess player deserves a digital collection of their games. Online players have this by default – every move is recorded, every game saved. Professional players have entire teams dedicated to documenting and analyzing their games, ensuring a comprehensive public record.

But what about the club player who battles it out every Thursday night? The amateur who plays brilliant games at weekend tournaments? Their games – equally valuable, equally instructive – often vanish the moment the pieces are packed away.

Our Solution

Joust provides amateur and club-level chess players with the tools they need to seamlessly archive their physical games. We're democratizing game preservation, ensuring that every player – regardless of rating or resources – can build their own digital chess legacy.

Join us in preserving the rich tapestry of chess, one game at a time.
