Search for Vastu software and you mostly find Windows desktop programs: a setup file, a licence key, an annual per-seat fee, and an afternoon spent retyping a floor plan before the tool tells you anything. Vaastu AI takes the other route — it runs in a browser, you upload the plan you already have, and room detection is automatic. Below is an honest account of what that gets you, and what the desktop products still do that we do not.
The established Vastu software category in India grew out of desktop astrology suites — the kind of product where a Vaastu module sits alongside kundli, muhurat and numerology screens. The shape of those products has barely changed in a decade:
None of the above is wrong — it is just built for a world where software shipped on a CD. Doing the same job online changes four practical things:
Reports and chat are available in ten languages: English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Bangla, Gujarati, Marathi and Punjabi.
There is no manual to read. The whole workflow is upload → North → rooms → report, and the only step that needs any care is North.
Drag in the plan you already have — a JPG, PNG or PDF up to 25MB. A builder brochure page, an architect PDF or even a clear photo of a printed plan all work. Rooms are detected automatically; there is nothing to redraw.
A compass-and-map step asks you to confirm the plan’s North. If the plan has a north arrow the tool pre-fills it; you just confirm. This one input decides the entire directional reading, so it is worth ten careful seconds.
The detected rooms are shown as pins on your plan. Rename, add or remove any the AI got wrong — a mislabelled kitchen would corrupt the whole analysis, so you get final say before scoring.
You get an overall Vaastu score, the grid over your plan and key recommendations free. The full room-by-room report with remedies is a one-time ₹299, and you can ask the AI chat follow-up questions about your own plan.
Everything in the four steps above runs on the free tier — score, grid, basic space analysis and two AI chat replies, with no signup and no card. The one-time ₹299 report adds the full directional analysis, room-by-room detail and specific remedies. If you only want the quick free check, start from the free Vastu check page; a fuller walkthrough of the process is on how it works.
Five of the eleven rows below go against us. If one of those five is the reason you are shopping for Vastu analysis software, a desktop licence is genuinely the better buy and you should not waste an afternoon here.

“Typical desktop Vastu software” describes the common feature set of the Windows Vastu and astrology suites sold in India; individual products differ, so check the specific one you are comparing.
The slow part of a consultation is rarely the judgement — it is measuring, transcribing and typing a layout into a tool before any analysis begins. Uploading the plan and letting rooms be detected removes that step, so a first read is ready before the site visit. You still bring the interpretation and the remedies you trust. The limits: no client database, and no logo of your own on the report.
Most residential briefs in India arrive with a Vaastu expectation attached, and it is far cheaper to catch a north-east toilet or a south-west entrance at concept stage than after approval. Export the plan as PDF or PNG, run it through the free tier, and you have a directional sanity check you can repeat across two or three options before committing.
Buyers ask about Vaastu constantly and the honest answer is usually a shrug. Running a unit plan through the free tier gives you a score and a directional summary you can actually speak to, without claiming expertise you do not have. There is no bulk upload, so a large inventory means one plan at a time.
At the interiors stage Vaastu is mostly about placement rather than walls: which corner takes the bed, where the mirror goes, which way the hob faces. The premium report covers element mapping and room-by-room detail, which maps onto the decisions you are actually making — structural remedies rarely are.
This is where we differ most from the software category, so it is worth being blunt. There is no subscription and no seat licence. The analysis is free; a full premium report is a one-time ₹299 in India, and roughly $5 in the US, £4 in the UK, C$7 in Canada, A$8 in Australia, €5 in Germany, R$15 in Brazil, BDT 250 in Bangladesh and PKR 600 in Pakistan. You pay again only for another report.
Do the arithmetic before deciding. A ₹5,000 annual licence is about twenty-five premium reports. At a couple of reports a month, per-report billing costs less and carries no fixed cost in a quiet quarter. At thirty or forty plans a year a licence may work out cheaper — and if you also need the CRM and white-labelling, it is not a close call. Homeowners comparing against a traditional consultation rather than against software should note that human Vaastu consultants in India typically charge ₹5,000–₹50,000, and ₹15,000–₹50,000 for a 3–4 BHK.
The full breakdown of what the free tier includes versus the premium report is on the pricing page, and the four-step process is walked through on how it works.
Many of the searches that land here are for a Vastu API, a SaaS Vastu platform for a team, real-estate portal integration or white-labelled consultant software. None of that exists today, and we would rather say so than let you find out after signing up. Specifically: no public API, no bulk or batch upload, no white-label reports, no client CRM, no team seats, no mobile app and no offline mode. What exists is the single-plan browser tool described on this page.
If you need one of those — a builder wanting Vaastu reports for a project’s units, a portal wanting an integration, a consultant wanting volume — tell us which and at what scale. Real demand is the only thing that decides what gets built next. The form below lands in a monitored inbox (support@vaastu-ai.com) and we reply to the address you give.
Yes. Vaastu AI has a free tier that runs in your browser: upload a floor plan, confirm which way is North, and you get an overall Vaastu score, a basic space analysis, an element balance overview, key recommendations and two AI chat replies. No signup or card details needed. Desktop Vastu software usually offers only a time-limited demo before an annual licence.
No. There is no setup file, no licence key and no Windows requirement. Vaastu AI runs entirely in a web browser on a laptop, tablet or phone, so you can run an analysis on site. Plans upload as JPG, PNG or PDF up to 25MB.
Not today. There is no public API, no bulk or batch upload endpoint and no developer sandbox. If you need programmatic access for a portal or a CRM, use the inquiry form on this page (or write to support@vaastu-ai.com) and describe your volume — that demand is what would justify building it.
Yes — most professionals use it as a first-pass analysis they then interpret for the client. Two honest limits: reports carry Vaastu AI branding and cannot be white-labelled, and there is no multi-client dashboard. Since pricing is per report, you can bill it through as a line item.
No. Room detection and report generation run on our servers, so an internet connection is required. That is the clearest trade-off against an installed desktop Vastu program, which keeps working on a site visit with no signal. You can download a generated report and read it later offline.
The fastest way to judge any Vastu software is to run a plan you already know well through it. Upload one, confirm North, and see whether the score and room detection match your own reading. Free, no signup, no install.
