01/THE IDEA
Online chess made it possible to play anyone, anywhere. But it also moved one of the world’s most physical games onto a screen.
Kinetic is bringing the board back.
02/UNDER THE SURFACE
Beneath the surface is patented magnetic motion technology, designed to move real chess pieces smoothly across a physical board.
Above the surface, it still feels like chess: a board, pieces, and a human thinking through the next move.
03/BUILT AROUND REAL MOVEMENT
Real pieces. Real movement. Real chess.
