What is Chess.com Insights?
Chess.com Insights is part of the paid Diamond membership and covers the member's own Chess.com games.
What does ChessDrills do?
Enter a Chess.com or Lichess username and ChessDrills reads up to 300 of that player's recent finished games (up to 150 as White and 150 as Black). It shows how you score in every opening, as White and as Black, by time control, and marks the openings where you score below what the players' ratings predict.
From there you can practice the openings where you lose points: play them against an AI matched to your rating, then get a Stockfish review of your mistakes. Before a game, Prepare compares your openings with your opponent's and shows which to play and which to avoid.
