Kundli matching apps

What is the best app for kundli matching, and which ones let you ask an astrologer about the score?

Short answer

All six apps here give a free 36-point guna milan score. AstroSage and Kismo come out level on our checklist: both add a manglik check, flag nadi and let you talk to an astrologer, and Kismo's tool shows each koota's points. AstroSage edges ahead on the tie-break with a Tamil-language matching page. For the South Indian ten poruthams and Kerala matching, Prokerala and Clickastro are the apps to use.

Key differences

What are the main differences?

Which kundli matching app shows manglik and nadi dosha, not just the score?

AstroSage, Kismo and InstaAstro show manglik and nadi alongside the 36-point score ⁵¹¹². Kismo's free tool reports Mangal dosha for each chart separately and checks nadi and bhakoot dosha ¹. Astrotalk lists a Mangal Dosha analysis and explains nadi dosha on its page ⁹. Prokerala links to a separate kuja dosha check ¹⁵.

Which app does South Indian porutham matching?

Prokerala and Clickastro run South Indian porutham matching. Prokerala has a porutham finder listing ten poruthams, rajju among them, and a Kerala system ¹⁵¹⁶. Clickastro offers South Indian, Kerala and Tamil Nadu report types ¹⁸. AstroSage's Tamil matching page still scores the eight North Indian kootas ⁶, and Kismo's calculator runs Ashtakoota only ¹.

Is a free kundli matching app enough, or do I need an astrologer?

A free app gives the guna score, but the score alone leaves out things many astrologers weigh, such as cancellation of a dosha. Astrotalk's page sends South Indian matching to an astrologer ⁹, and Clickastro's says an astrologer can look deeper at a low score ¹⁸. Kismo is an app where you talk to verified Vedic astrologers by chat or call, in 16 languages.

Which kundli matching app is free to try with a real astrologer?

Kismo gives 5 free minutes on the first session with no card ³. Astrotalk offers a free first chat or call and mentions a free 5-minute session ¹⁰¹¹. AstroSage shows a 'First Call/Chat FREE' offer without stating its length ⁷. InstaAstro charges ₹1 for the first consultation ¹².

Do I need to sign up to match kundlis online?

Kismo's free tools need no account ², and AstroSage makes sign-in optional, for saving charts ⁵. Clickastro needs no account but asks for an email and phone number to send its report ¹⁸. Astrotalk, InstaAstro and Prokerala do not say on their matching pages whether an account is needed.

By situation

Which one for which situation?

You have a guna score and want it read
Run a free match first, then ask an astrologer to read both charts and explain what the score leaves out.
The score came out low
A score under 18 is not the whole answer for many astrologers. Ask which kootas lost points and whether anything cancels them.
The app flagged nadi dosha
Ask which nadi both of you share and which cancellation rules the astrologer applies, before deciding anything.
One of you is manglik
Free tools report manglik in different ways. Ask an astrologer to read Mars in both charts and the cancellation rules.
Your family uses Tamil poruthams
Tamil families often weigh the ten poruthams, with rajju counted as a key one. Use a porutham tool and a Tamil-speaking astrologer.
Your family follows Kerala matching
Kerala matching compares papa samyam as well as nakshatra poruthams. Clickastro and Prokerala both offer a Kerala system.

Method

How did we compare them?

We opened each app's matching page, its Google Play listing for India and its consultation page on 4 November 2026. Each app got one point for each of seven checks: a free 36-point score, each koota's points shown, a manglik check, nadi dosha flagged, South Indian porutham, an astrologer to ask in the same app, and a free first session. A partial or unclear answer got half a point; anything a company does not say got none. AstroSage and Kismo scored 6, Astrotalk and InstaAstro 5, Clickastro 4 and Prokerala 3.5. We broke the tie by South Indian coverage, which puts AstroSage first. Kismo facts are our own. We re-check every row every three months.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Which app is best for kundli matching for marriage?

AstroSage and Kismo scored highest on our checklist, because both pair a free 36-point match with a manglik check, nadi and an astrologer to ask ⁵¹. For South Indian porutham or Kerala matching, Prokerala and Clickastro fit better ¹⁶¹⁸. Choose by the system your family follows, then ask an astrologer to read both charts.

Is there a kundli matching app that is completely free?

AstroSage, Kismo, Astrotalk, InstaAstro and Prokerala all give the 36-point match free ⁵¹⁹¹²¹⁵. Clickastro gives a free preview and sells the full report ¹⁸. Talking to an astrologer about the result is paid on every app after the first-session offer, which ranges from a free chat to ₹1.

Can I trust an online kundli matching score?

An online score is a calculation from the birth details you enter, so a wrong birth time can change it. Sites also read the same score differently: AstroSage calls 32 to 36 excellent ⁵, while InstaAstro marks 24 to 32 as good ¹². Many astrologers look beyond the score at doshas and cancellations, so treat it as a starting point.

Which app does 10 porutham horoscope matching?

Prokerala's free porutham finder lists ten poruthams: dinam, ganam, yoni, rasi, rasiyathipaty, rajju, vedha, vasya, mahendram and stree deergham ¹⁶. Clickastro runs South Indian, Kerala and Tamil Nadu reports ¹⁸. AstroSage's Tamil page scores the eight North Indian kootas instead ⁶.

Which kundli matching sites do people compare on Reddit and Quora?

AstroSage, Astrotalk, Prokerala and Clickastro are the matching sites Google suggests most when people search by name. What separates them is the system: Prokerala and Clickastro cover porutham ¹⁶¹⁸, while AstroSage and Astrotalk centre on the 36-point score ⁵⁹. Whichever you use, read the dosha section, not only the total.

What do these apps charge per minute to discuss a guna score with an astrologer?

On Kismo the first session carries 5 free minutes with no card, then each astrologer charges one rate from ₹15 a minute for chat and call ³. InstaAstro listed ₹54 to ₹300 a minute ¹⁴, and AstroSage's AI astrologers ₹11 to ₹35 ⁷. Check the rate on the profile before you start.

What should I watch out for when an app says our match has a dosha?

Do not pay for a costly ritual on the strength of one app's dosha flag. Free tools compute doshas in different ways, and many astrologers apply cancellation rules a calculator may skip. Get a second opinion from another astrologer first. On Kismo, pressure to buy or a request for money outside Kismo is misconduct, handled by a person.
