The Cheval Chess Analysis Suite is the premier Windows desktop application for chess game analysis. It uses the Stockfish engine to evaluate positions and provides options for customizing the engine's performance.

Cheval can import your PGN chess games from any source, review your moves, save your analysis to disk for later review, and even export your review as a print-ready PDF report.

With the ability to view data trends with six different customizable move-by-move graphs, Cheval truly sets the standard for both robustness and granularity of evaluation data.

With eighteen individual items in the Help menu, Cheval provides clear and full access to the chess evaluation concepts it employs.

From concise explanations of centipawns and accuracy all the way to the exact mathematical formulas used to calculate metrics (with accompanying graphs for visual clarity), the Help menu is filled with the answers to your questions about everything you see in Cheval.

Cheval is free, but please feel free to donate to Starman to show appreciation for this effort.
