PioSOLVER is a postflop equilibrium solver for Holdem which you can run on run-of-the-mill modern home PC. PioSOLVER solves full postflop games with arbitrary ranges and stacks. It gets to very decent solution in minutes (for flop spots) and in seconds (for turn/river spots). If you let it run few minutes longer you can get to practically perfect Nash Equilibrium.
PioSOLVER solves arbitrary trees including those with many bet sizes as long as they fit in RAM.
PioSOLVER makes the whole tree available to browse. You can see exact strategy, EVs and ranges for every turn/river card and every betting sequence. Everything is easily accessible and possible to log which makes the results easy to verify and input into other tools.
In short, PioSOLVER is the magical game theory box people were waiting for. In my view it gives more insight into the game than anything written or said before. If you want to know how very good approximation of optimal play looks like - that's the product which gives it to you.

Feature Overview on the website so here is only a quick glimpse:
1. PioSOLVER has very modest hardware requirements and is very fast:
-most trees with one bet size fit in 500MB-4GB range
-high end laptop or few years old i7 desktop are enough to solve those in 2-3 minutes (and for very small ranges even below 1 minute)
-trees with multiple bet-sizes are bigger but it's still possible to fit them under 8GB of RAM is you play 6max. If you have 16GB of RAM you shouldn't run into any limitations (although it's always possible to build a bigger tree)
-more
benchmarks and performance characteristics.
2. PioSOLVER offers very compact and quick tree navigation:
-you can see strategies/EVs/equities/ranges as well as ranges for specific actions at any point without any delays and needless clicking:

-you can jump between different turn/river card with on keystroke and having the view refreshing automatically,

3. PioSOLVER has many analysis tools built in:
-Range Explorer:
-aggregation reports across turns/rivers which shows how equilibrium behaves across different turns/rivers:
-aggregation reports across multiple flops
4. PioSOLVER is perfect for high volume analysis:
-You can choose size of the save (full memory dump, flops+turns, flops only); in case of small saves PioSOLVER takes care of recalculating missing parts of the tree automatically and the delay is barely noticeable when browsing;
-It's very easy to create and execute scripts to calculate and save the results on many boards.
-Programmers and advanced users can create more complicate scripts as well as access the solver internals from the solver console
5. PioSOLVER makes it easy to share your analysis:
-all the results are copy-pastable from GUI in case you need to make some reports/overviews
-copy-paste as CSV for easy copy-pasting to spreadsheet is available as well
-all the ranges/tree templates are kept in human readable .txt files; they are portable and easy to share with other users
-tree configs are copy-pasteable as well and easy to share on chats/forums
6. PioSOLVER is very actively developed.
Looking at the progress during first 4 months, as documented
here,
here,
here,
here and
here we hope it's clear that we take our mission to make it the ultimate poker tool very seriously.

We also have a very active Skype discussion group which is a main place to discuss the results, discuss features and get support.
This thread is for suggestions, support, questions and overall discussion about what is or could be possible in the future. Don't hesitate to post!
