She has been among the strongest German female chess players since her youth.
Pähtz was born in 1985 in Erfurt, Germany.
Her father, Thomas Pähtz, is a chess grandmaster and played chess with his daughter from a young age on.
At the age of nine years she won her first German championship, in the under-11 age group.
She has played for Germany in 10 women's chess olympiads between 1998 and 2016.
In 1999 she became Germany's women's chess champion.
She served as one of four advisors on the World team in the 1999 Kasparov versus The World chess match.
She has also played for Germany in nine women's European Team Chess Championships between 1999 and 2015.
She won the individual bronze medal on board two in 2001 with a score of +3 =4 -1 at León, Spain.

She also played for Germany in the women's World Team Chess Championship in 2007, scoring +2 =6 -0 for which she won the individual bronze medal on board one.
Three norms are needed to become a grandmaster, and Pähtz has a previous norm from 2011, and another possible norm from 2016.
Her 2016 result was initially considered to be a GM norm by the tournament's referee and the then-leader of the FIDE Title Commission, Werner Stubenvoll.
However, after Pähtz' 2021 norm and the official application for a GM title in early 2022, Stubenvoll reversed his position, and the Title Commission recommended not to accept her 2016 result as a norm, as she only had two GM opponents instead of the three required for a norm.
It was reported in May 2022 that the FIDE Council deferred the decision whether Pähtz will receive the grandmaster title or not.
After a decision in December 2022, Pähtz was awarded the title.
In 2017 she won the bronze medal in the women's World Rapid Chess Championship in Riyadh.
She won the 2018 European Women's Championship in rapid chess.
In 2021, she scored what was reported to be her third grandmaster norm; however, the validity of one of her earlier presumed norms was in doubt.
After a lengthy process, FIDE made an individual decision on her case in December 2022, making Pähtz the first German woman to earn the FIDE title of Grandmaster (GM).
Pähtz won the 2018 European Women's Championship in rapid chess and was the runner-up in the respective blitz chess tournament.
