How Chess Rating Conversion Works
Lichess and Chess.com use different rating systems. This tool estimates the difference based on studies of real users. The conversion is based on statistical analysis from the ChessGoals rating comparison study, which analyzed thousands of player ratings across both platforms.
Generally, Lichess ratings tend to be higher than Chess.com ratings due to differences in their rating algorithms, starting ratings, and player pools. These conversions provide a rough estimate but individual results may vary based on playing style, improvement rate, and other factors.
