About VivaAI Astrology
Where ancient Vedic wisdom meets modern technology.
Our Story
VivaAI Astrology was born from a simple observation: millions of people across India rely on Vedic astrology for important life decisions — from choosing wedding dates to understanding career paths — yet access to accurate, affordable astrology remained limited to those who could afford personal consultations with experienced astrologers.
We set out to change this by building a platform that combines the precision of modern astronomical computation with the wisdom of traditional Vedic interpretation. Our goal was not to replace the human astrologer but to democratize access to the foundational calculations and insights that form the basis of every astrological reading — the birth chart itself, planetary positions, Dasha timelines, Dosha analysis, and compatibility matching.
The site launched in May 2025 and is still young. Every calculation tool is free and needs no account; the only paid item is an optional ₹19 PDF of a report you can already read in full on the page. We would rather say that plainly than quote a user count, because we do not publish traffic figures and you have no way to check one.
Our Approach: Ancient Wisdom, Modern Precision
Vedic astrology (Jyotish Shastra) is one of the six Vedangas — auxiliary disciplines of the Vedas dating back over 5,000 years. It is not mere superstition; at its core, it is an intricate system of astronomical observation, mathematical calculation, and pattern recognition refined over millennia by generations of scholars.
At VivaAI, we honor this tradition by ensuring our calculations are astronomically precise while our interpretations follow classical Vedic principles. We do not invent new astrological systems or make unfounded claims. Every prediction, every Dosha analysis, and every remedy suggestion traces back to established texts like Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, Phaladeepika, and Saravali.
The astronomy is implemented directly rather than delegated to a black box. Solar and lunar longitudes come from the periodic series published in Jean Meeus's Astronomical Algorithms; the five visible planets come from Keplerian orbital elements with the Jupiter–Saturn resonance terms and a light-time correction applied. We then subtract the Lahiri Ayanamsa, the sidereal standard adopted by the Indian government's Calendar Reform Committee.
We check that work rather than assert it. A script in the repository compares the engine against events whose timings are independently published — equinoxes, solstices, and the geocentric New and Full Moons behind recorded eclipses. It currently places the Sun within 0.4 arcminutes and the Moon within 0.9 arcminutes; the visible planets sit within a few arcminutes. For context, a Nakshatra Pada spans 200 arcminutes, so this is far finer than any boundary the chart depends on.
Our Values
Checked, Not Claimed
The engine is verified against equinox, solstice and eclipse timings by a script anyone can run. Sun within 0.4′, Moon within 0.9′. We publish the method, not a marketing number.
Accessible to All
Core astrology tools are free forever — no sign-up walls, no hidden fees. We believe everyone deserves access to their own birth chart.
Privacy by Design
Birth details are processed in your browser. We don't store personal astrological data on our servers. Your cosmic blueprint stays yours.
Transparency
We clearly state our methodology, limitations, and the entertainment-purpose nature of astrological predictions. No misleading claims.
Respect for Tradition
We follow classical Vedic astrology texts faithfully. Our interpretations are rooted in Parashara, not invented or sensationalized for clicks.
Deterministic by Design
There is no language model anywhere in the reading. Every sentence is produced by rules keyed to your actual house lords, dignities and placements — so the same birth details always return the same chart.

Who Builds This
VivaAI is not a company. It is built and maintained by Vinay Dharmik — a software developer, not a practising astrologer — working alone from India. Saying “our team” would sound better and would not be true.
I want to be straightforward about what I am and am not. I am not a Jyotishi. I have no lineage, no certification, and I do not read charts for people. I am a developer who became interested in how much of Vedic astrology is actually arithmetic, and who found that most free chart generators get that arithmetic quietly wrong. So I wrote the astronomy myself from Jean Meeus's published algorithms and check it against sky events whose timings other people measured — equinoxes, solstices, the geocentric conjunctions behind recorded eclipses. That part of this site can be objectively right or wrong, and I can show you that it is right. The interpretive layer is a different thing: it is a transcription of what named classical texts state for a given placement, cited so you can look it up. Where those texts disagree with each other, I say so rather than picking one and presenting it as settled. What I cannot give you is the judgement of an experienced astrologer weighing a whole chart at once. For anything that matters, see one.
- Implemented this site's astronomical engine directly from Jean Meeus's published algorithms, rather than calling a third-party ephemeris
- Verifies every release against independently published equinox, solstice and eclipse timings — the check script ships in the repository
- Transcribes each interpretive rule from a named classical text and cites it at the point of use
Where the site states an astrological rule, it names the classical text the rule comes from, so you can check it against a source rather than take our word for it. Corrections are genuinely welcome — if you find a placement or a Yoga condition we have got wrong, write to contact@vivaai.in and we will fix it and say so.
