Rook Review has joined forces with ChessEver, the mobile platform dedicated to live chess tournament coverage. The partnership allows Rook Review readers to access live games, past results and upcoming tournaments directly from rookreview.com. In turn, Rook Review's news content will be featured on chessever.com alongside ChessEver's own tournament reporting.
ChessEver provides comprehensive tournament information including player statistics, game analysis, schedules and standings. The platform lets users track specific tournaments and players while reviewing completed games with full notation, engine analysis and an interactive board. The service runs across multiple devices and operating systems, including web, iOS, Android, macOS, Windows and Linux, plus a Chrome extension.
The collaboration aims to connect live gameplay with the news and stories surrounding chess events. ChessEver was founded in 2025 by GM Vasif Durarbayli, who has won the Azerbaijani Chess Championship twice and reached the World Cup Top 16 in 2021. The partnership reflects a broader effort to make following chess more accessible and engaging for audiences.
