How does your anti-cheat work and what do you do to prevent cheating?

🤖 How does Checkmate Live’s anti-cheat system work?

Checkmate Live has developed a next-gen anti-cheat system called Sixth-i that combines AI, real-time monitoring, evidence based reporting and human oversight to detect and prevent unfair play. Here’s how we seek to promote a clean and competitive environment:

🛡 Our Multi-Layered Anti-Cheat Approach

🤖 AI-Powered Detection – Our proprietary Sixth-i AI analyzes game patterns, player behavior, and move accuracy to detect suspicious activity and potential cheating.
📹 Computer Vision & Real-Time Monitoring – In high-stakes events, we use video-based detection to monitor gameplay and ensure fair play.
📊 Statistical & Behavioural Analysis – Every move is analysed against fair play models, spotting engine use, collusion, and unnatural deviations in decision-making.
⚖ Fair Play Score & Risk Modeling – Players are assigned a Fair Play Score 🏅 based on their behavior and history, identifying potential cheaters early.
👀 Human Review & Arbitration – Our Fair Play Team manually reviews flagged cases to ensure accuracy and fairness, while Arbiters actively monitor games in real time.
🔐 Controlled Data and Vision Distribution – We limit access to real-time game data to prevent external assistance or unauthorised analysis.

🚨 Zero Tolerance for Cheating

Offenders who violate Checkmate Live’s Fair Play Policy will face consequences:

❌ Immediate disqualification from events
⛔ Account suspensions & permanent bans (no appeals)
🏆 Forfeiture of rewards, titles, and rankings
⚖ Reporting to external integrity bodies if the instance merits it:

♟ Chess Federations – Including the Asian Chess Federation and other governing bodies.
🎮 Esports Integrity Commission (ESIC) – To uphold fair play in competitive gaming.
🕵️‍♂️ Law Enforcement & Legal Authorities – In cases of severe violations, fraud, or match-fixing.
