ASTRION unites deep residual neural evaluation with high-speed C++ alpha-beta search. Available as a UCI tournament binary and a native, ad-free Android app.
Experience Astrion directly on your phone with a clean, native interface customized from Jeroen Carolus's engine architecture.
Direct access to Play, Puzzles, FICS, Lichess, and Developer Profile
Real-time candidate evaluation, node counters, and minimal controls
Curated checkmate puzzles and tactical scenarios with engine feedback
Explore historic masterpieces like Donald Byrne vs. Bobby Fischer
Built from the ground up for speed, tactical vision, and deep positional understanding.
Trained on hundreds of thousands of grandmaster positions from the CCRL corpus. Dual policy and value heads predict candidate moves and precise win probabilities.
Pre-compiled with AVX2 instruction sets, bitboard move generators, and killer heuristic tables for blazing nodes-per-second throughput.
Standardized UCI protocol support allows plug-and-play matches in Arena GUI, Cutechess, Banksia, or hosting automated 24/7 bots on Lichess.
Connect your phone via USB reverse-proxy or local Wi-Fi to query your GPU/CPU neural backend with sub-millisecond roundtrips, plus offline fallback.
Every commit triggers GitHub Actions to compile native binaries, sign the Android APK, and publish verified artifacts to GitHub Releases.
Free and open-source under the MIT license. No intrusive full-screen ads, analytics tracking, or locked feature paywalls.
Get up and running with Astrion in three simple terminal commands.
