Katha

Katha is a matchmaking platform rooted in Vedic wisdom, serving families in the USA and Canada. It features 36-point Ashtakoota Guna Milan Kundli compatibility, 3-tier verified profiles (phone, selfie, government ID), and family profiles where parents can create and manage profiles for their son or daughter.

Katha uses the traditional 36-point Ashtakoota Guna Milan system to calculate compatibility between two people based on their birth charts. This includes analysis of all 8 Kootas (Varna, Vashya, Tara, Yoni, Graha Maitri, Gana, Bhakoota, and Nadi), plus Mangal Dosha detection and Nakshatra matching.

Every profile on Katha goes through 3-tier verification: phone number verification, live selfie confirmation, and government ID check. This ensures every person is who they say they are.
