How Kundaligram computes Ashtakoot matching
Kundaligram matching uses your already-computed birth chart as one side and a partner’s birth details on the other. It calculates classical Ashtakoot (guna milan) locally with the same Vedic engine that powers charts — Parashari framework, Lahiri ayanamsa — then shows an eight-koota breakdown, total out of 36, and Manglik notes in plain bilingual language. No marketplace middleman; the math stays on the product’s engine.
Your chart is already the first half
When you create a kundli on Kundaligram, planetary positions are computed once and stored. Matching reuses that natal data rather than reinventing your sky map each time.
You then enter the other person’s date, time, and place. The engine resolves historical timezone for that locality so both charts share a fair comparison.
Classical Ashtakoot in the product engine
The match runs through the eight kootas — Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoot, and Nadi — using Moon sign and nakshatra relationships defined in classical guna milan.
Computation is local to Kundaligram’s Vedic engine (the same math family as chart creation). There is no paid third-party astrology API in the middle.
What you see in the report
Results include the total out of 36, each koota’s points, and plain-language notes so families are not left decoding only numbers. Manglik concern is surfaced as its own calm section rather than mixed into the guna total.
Saved matches stay available in your history so you can revisit the same report without re-entering details.
Privacy and tone by design
Birth details are sensitive. Matching is tied to your signed-in account under normal product privacy practices — not published as a public marketplace profile.
Copy stays bilingual and non-alarmist. Kundaligram frames matching as personal Vedic chart math for families who want clarity, not viral fear content.
Try matching, then keep learning
Open Kundaligram matching with your chart ready, add partner birth details, and review the Ashtakoot breakdown together. If you want more than gunas — dasha timing, Lagna patterns, or relationship questions — ask your chart in the same calm, bilingual space.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need a paid plan to run matching?
- Kundaligram’s Ashtakoot matching is computed locally on the product engine and is available as a matching feature without consuming chat question credits. Chart Q&A uses the separate per-question model.
- Which ayanamsa is used for matching?
- Lahiri ayanamsa — the same standard used for birth charts on Kundaligram — so both sides of a match stay consistent.
- Can I match if I only know the partner’s date of birth?
- Moon nakshatra needs time and place for confidence. Date alone is usually not enough for a reliable Ashtakoot score. Gather the best available birth time before treating results as firm.
- Is this the same as chatting with an astrologer marketplace?
- No. Kundaligram computes your charts and matches with a self-hosted Vedic engine, then lets you ask your own chart in plain language. It is personal chart grounding — not a directory of random callers.
