5 Homegrown Astrology apps

5 Homegrown Astrology apps:- Astrology has remained a popular practice for centuries, and its significance continues to grow, particularly in India. This enduring fascination with astrology, deeply rooted in cultural heritage, has led to a significant increase in its adoption and interest. The surge is notably owing to its seamless integration with technology, making it more accessible to millennials and Gen-Zers with clear pricing and various services available, from tarot reading to Vedic astrology. Social media, especially platforms like Instagram and Twitter, has further boosted this trend.

These five platforms have become hotspots for astrological content, sparking discussions and making astrology more appealing to the younger generation, ultimately propelling its mainstream appeal in India.

Astroyogi

Astroyogi, which aims to become a unicorn by 2025, first disrupted the astrology industry by launching its automated kundali generator and then created the first marketplace of astrologers, providing online readings through industry stalwarts like Bejan Daruwala and Sanjay Jumaani. Since its inception, Astroyogi has been at the forefront of astrotech and was the first to take astrology online in India in 2001. It is one of the few bootstrapped companies that can boast of being part of the Rs. 100+ Crore ARR club.

In 2016, it transitioned significantly, guided by Aditya Kapoor, as it evolved into an App First engagement platform. Aditya, who was one of the early members of the Prashant Kishor-led IPAC as a Digital Marketing & Tech Initiatives Lead, helped transition its cosmic journey, propelling it to serve a global customer base of 3 million in 11 languages, facilitated by a network of over 5000 trusted astro professionals. The platform offers a comprehensive array of certified astrological services, including vaastu consultations, numerology analysis, tarot readings, and well-being sessions such as reiki and pranic healing. Its trajectory has been characterized by rapid growth, surpassing industry averages and reshaping the astrology landscape.

Meena Kapoor, the founder of Astroyogi, is a serial entrepreneur who has created multiple cloud-telephony-based Internet marketplaces. She took astrology online through the platform and demonstrated technological foresight with early ventures into horoscopes, computer-generated kundalis, and gemstone e-commerce. Astroyogi signifies the convergence of tradition and technology, shaping the future of astrotech with a commitment to excellence. While running the venture, Meena achieved another success, exiting her health tech startup, OyeHelp through its acquisition by one of the leading online pharmaceutical brands.
