ChessDial is built by ChessBase India.
ChessBase India has spent years covering Indian chess — its players, its tournaments, and the coaches who quietly do the work behind both. Over and over, the same question came in: where do I find a good coach? ChessDial is our answer to it.
It is not a directory we scraped together. Every profile on it was submitted by the coach or academy themselves, and read by someone on our side before it went live.
How ChessDial works
What a coach or academy goes through to appear on this site.
One profile, one coach.
What a listing here actually means
Every listing is reviewed by a person
No coach or academy appears on ChessDial automatically. A human reads the profile — credentials, fees, location — and approves it before any student can see it. Edits go back through the same queue.
Identities are checked against government ID
Coaches can send us a government ID, and we check the name on it matches the name on the profile. Those profiles carry a blue tick. It's a check on who they are — not a judgement on how they teach.
Ratings come from real students
A rating can only be left by someone who actually booked and completed a session through ChessDial. There is no way to post a review without that booking behind it.
