Thanks, @BananaBeaver for the tip! This will help see obvious threats but for a long and/or deep plan, IMO we need to combine SF analysis and its visual hints to understand the ideas.

Anyway, by "Explainable chess analysis" I meant something easy to understand, such as

(Examples)
- The idea is to attack weak pawn at c3
- The plan is to pin the knight at e5 while trying to overload the isolated pawn at d5

There is more than one good/best move at any time.

Human thinks differently from engines.

Can I ask what model have you used and how you trained it?

> I sincerely suggest you seek professional chess advice for these analysis.

We have a GM coach who helps us with analysis on a weekly basic.
The problem is, I can't reach out for help anytime and my question is if there is a tool, a service, or a way to help us with that.

@Toscani

Have you tried decodechess?
Though it is still in the infancy stage, I support its idea.

Thanks for fueling the discussion. We all know there are many search schemes using chess engines. There are various types of simulation models using hundreds of engines on different platforms. On the other point you touched on, I suggest you focus on taking advantage of the advice your GM coach provides you. Not many chess players are fortunate enough to have a GM as a coach. I wish you success!

@ThunderClap

Thanks for the comment.

I am looking for a tool that explains any situation, not only openings,
which probably only done by not-yet-developed tool.

Can you please shed some keywords on search schemes and simulation models?

Thanks for the suggestion! Yes, we do.
