Feature suggestion: Image-to-FEN Conversion on Chess.com Analysis Tool

Hey guys, I have a feature suggestion for analysis board tool . I think it would be handy if the the user can upload a screenshot or any image of a chess diagram to the chess.com website, and the position will then be converted to FEN and directly projected to the chess.com analysis board. There is already a browser extension called chessVision.ai (https://chessvision.ai/) which allows you to scan the chess diagram and return the FEN accurately. I think it will be great if this feature is incorporated in Chess.com's own analysis tool as it allows the user to just screenshot a chess position from a Youtube video for example and just upload it without dealing with the syntax of FEN or spending time setting up the exact position. This is especially useful for beginners.

That would be really cool however I don't know if that's actually possible.

Wow 🤯 This is fantastic.
To think of all the hours I've spent transcribing positions...
Cheers for that 👍
