Most APIs do one. Vedika ships all three, fully isolated so values never cross-contaminate between systems.
Vedika does not rent its astronomy. The XALEN Ephemeris is our own engine for planetary positions, house cusps and divisional math — a core differentiator no other astrology API owns.
It delivers sub-arcsecond precision, independently validated against reference ephemerides. That is the foundation every one of the 700+ operations is built on.
XALEN Ephemeris is open-source (Apache-2.0). Below is its measured agreement with NASA's JPL DE440 reference ephemeris across a dense 1900–2050 grid (3,653 epochs per body), in arcseconds of ecliptic longitude. Every number here is reproducible from the public repo with a single command — nothing is hard-coded.

How to read it, honestly: every planet agrees with the NASA JPL DE440 reference to sub-arcsecond across the full 150-year window; the analytic Moon is arcsecond-class (load the DE440 kernel for sub-arcsecond Moon when you need it). We match the reference-grade standard — we do not claim to beat Swiss Ephemeris, which is itself a JPL reference. No competitor publishes a comparable runnable benchmark.

Astronomy is computed, not guessed. Interpretation is grounded in the texts real astrologers train from.
Measured on the spiritual domain Vedika serves.
Every interpretive claim traces to a recognised classical source — the canon practising astrologers are trained from. No blog summaries, no invented verses.
Built for production traffic with an enterprise uptime SLA.
Computation and AI interpretation return in a single round trip. Response latency is typically 200–800ms, backed by a 99.9%+ uptime SLA across redundant regions.
11 Indian languages and 19 international languages — written by the model, not machine-translated after the fact.
Generic astrology APIs hand you numbers and stop. Vedika returns computation, AI interpretation and precision-checked output in a single call.
