Which one fits

If you read charts yourself at your own desk, desktop software may be all you need. If you are building an app, a website or a service that shows astrology to other people, you need an API your code can call. That is what Vedika is.

Questions

Do I need to install anything?

No. Your code calls Vedika with an API key. The JavaScript and Python SDKs are optional helpers.

Can I try it without paying?

Yes. The sandbox returns keyless mock responses with no card. It is not production access.

How does Vedika pricing work?

Vedika sells wallet plans from $12 a month, billed monthly or annually. The plan charge becomes wallet credit, and each call draws its published price. Per-call prices are on the pricing page.

Where is data stored?

Vedika runs on multi-region cloud infrastructure and routes each request automatically. Customers agree any data-residency needs at signup, as part of enterprise terms. Query text for AI answers and safety checks may be processed across regions. Regional processing requirements must be reviewed and agreed in a signed order form. Contact us before you build. A DPA is available on request.

Can we sign a DPA or NDA, and get GST invoices?

Yes. DPA and NDA are available on request from [email protected], and invoices carry GST.
