Here is an example where a mate solver shines.
1B6/4QK2/r3P3/5kNn/2N1pr2/3P2pP/4Rq2/3n1R2 w - - id "C.A.P.250024"; ce 32762;
pv dxe4+ Rxe4 Qc5+ Re5 Qxe5#

Did you see Nf3! immediately?  The program I was using found a certain mate, but
Nf3 is faster.  And really, really pretty.

Beautiful, isn't it?

I used Problemiste to solve it.  It uses foreign notation so a knight is S, not
N.  Easy to figure out though.
