How VastuVerdict works
A transparent path from facts you confirm to an explained Vastu verdict.
How to read an apartment floor plan
- Identify the whole apartment boundary and its centre. Locate a room from that centre, rather than from where the camera stands.
- Verify the plan's North reference. A coarse direction such as East is not a measured 90° bearing. Choosing an unknown direction is valid.
- Record actual rooms and combined uses. A combined bathroom/toilet has both uses at one location; a shared hall can be one named Living room. Distinguish an absent room from an unknown location.
- Correct details beside the source before assessing. Coverage is not measurement accuracy. For two options, inspect critical findings and unknowns before comparing scores.
This is a traditional rule methodology. Seek qualified advice for structural, legal and purchase due diligence.
How a verdict is produced
You provide and confirm the facts. A fixed rule engine scores those facts. Each rule has a documented basis in mainstream Vastu practice, the full rule base is published for anyone to check, and every finding names the principle behind it.
What AI does — and does not do
AI reads inputs only; it never scores them. You review and confirm everything it extracts before any verdict is produced.
Coverage is explicit
Partial inputs produce partial verdicts. Coverage appears as “N of M principles evaluated,” so you can see what was and was not assessed.
Your uploads are transient
Uploaded plans and photos are processed to extract facts and are not stored by us. When AI reading is switched on, they are sent to Anthropic, our AI provider, and processed under its terms.
Limitations
Vastu traditions genuinely disagree on fine points. This is guidance only, with no outcome promises. VastuVerdict is in beta and will continue to improve.
