GrahaAPI as a DivineAPI alternative
DivineAPI ships plugins and a broad catalogue. Here is honestly where we differ.
Where DivineAPI is strong
DivineAPI claims 300+ endpoints across Indian and Western astrology, supports 8 Indian response languages via a request parameter, and offers WordPress/Shopify/Wix plugins and widgets — handy if you want drop-in site widgets rather than an API integration.
Where GrahaAPI differs
| DivineAPI* | GrahaAPI | |
|---|---|---|
| Trying it | 14-day trial, credit card required | No card anywhere on the free path: unlimited test keys + 1,000 free calls/mo |
| Developer testing | No sandbox/test keys advertised | Unlimited production-identical test mode |
| Plan structure | Per-product plans (Vedic from ₹1,499/mo separate from other products) | One plan covers all 23 modules — from ₹499/mo |
| Languages | 8 Indian languages via lan parameter | English + Hindi only: chart fields carry Hindi twins with no parameter; Astro Shivanii AI via "language": "en" | "hi" |
| Over quota (paid) | Request quotas per plan | Calls pause at the monthly limit until the 1st or an upgrade; no overage bills |

The practical difference
Card-required trials filter out students, hackathon teams and side projects — exactly where developer tools win hearts. And per-product pricing means a Vedic + numerology + tarot app needs multiple subscriptions there; here one plan covers everything from panchang to palmistry.
Do I need a credit card to try GrahaAPI?
No — at no point on the free path. sk-test keys work without even signing up for paid plans, and the free plan (1,000 calls/month) needs only an email. Cards enter only when you choose a paid plan.
DivineAPI has WordPress plugins — does GrahaAPI?
A WordPress plugin is on our public roadmap (see the WordPress plugin page). Today GrahaAPI is API-first: clean JSON you render your way, plus a Node SDK on GitHub. If you need a no-code widget today, DivineAPI's plugins are ahead.
Can one GrahaAPI plan really access every module?
Yes — every plan (including free) can call all 237 endpoints across all 23 modules. Plans differ only in monthly call volume, never in which endpoints you may use.
