What Prokerala offers that we do not
- A larger permanent free allowance (5,000 credits a month against our 1,000).
- 32 Pythagorean numerology operations and 5 Chaldean ones (ours: Vedic numerology and Chaldean name numbers).
The same everywhere in the 96Astro API
- One request shape for every chart capability: a local date-time with its IANA time zone, latitude and longitude, and an optional ayanamsha (Lahiri by default) and node.
- Every response carries a
request_id, and errors use one JSON shape with a stable code (see errors). - Positions come from the Swiss Ephemeris; the accuracy page publishes our comparison with NASA JPL Horizons.
