01How it works
Published tournament information, presented more clearly.
Roundify creates a local, browsable view of tournament information that has been published on Chess-Results.
1. Import an authorized tournament
An operator provides a Chess-Results tournament URL for an event they run or are permitted to retrieve and republish. Roundify then collects the published tournament overview, player details, pairings, and results on the server.
2. Keep a reliable local snapshot
The published data is saved locally, so tournament pages remain quick to browse. Previous rounds stay available as historical snapshots, while a failed retrieval never replaces the last valid data.
3. Follow the newest published round
The Live page begins with the latest stored round and checks the local Roundify API for updates every 12 seconds. It shows the current published pairings and results without asking your browser to scrape Chess-Results.
04Source and authorization
Source and authorization
Chess-Results remains the source of the published tournament data. Roundify republishes what is available there; it does not calculate official standings or tie-breaks, maintain a global player database, or use browser automation.
