India’s first tech-driven “play & learn” interactive chess classroom

CircleChess has unveiled India’s first live, interactive, and fully tech-driven chess classroom the Caissa School of Chess revolutionizing how children learn and experience chess. Unlike traditional online lessons, this “Play & Learn” model blends live coaching, AI assistance, and real-time engagement to create a fully immersive learning environment.

Students can now solve puzzles live, receive instant feedback on every move, and interact directly with Grandmasters and elite coaches. The platform transforms passive learning into an active experience enabling learners to pause any recorded or live session, analyze positions, test moves, or even solve puzzles instantly.

“Learning chess should be as exciting as playing it,” said Kumar Gaurav, Founder of CircleChess. “We’ve combined live interaction, AI intelligence, and human mentorship to make learning measurable and accessible for every child.”

The platform adapts to each learner’s level, offering personalized journeys for beginners and aspiring champions alike. Co-founder Swati Agrawal emphasized that the platform “empowers students to enjoy the process of learning through creativity, technology, and mentorship.”

Led by Chief Chess Officer GM Vishnu Prasanna, former coach of World Champion Gukesh, the initiative involves over 20 titled players mentoring young talents. Beyond gameplay, students benefit from AI-driven analysis, psychological insights, and progress tracking through performance dashboards.

Parents and learners receive smart notifications, class updates, and progress reports in real time, while communication is centralized for seamless support.

With features like AI-assisted gameplay, real-time feedback, peer play zones, and personalized challenges, CircleChess is redefining chess education. The Caissa School of Chess transforms every class into an interactive, game-like experience — merging fun with mastery and setting a new global benchmark for tech-enabled learning.
