Hasta

Terms

A reading is a mirror, not a verdict. Read it for reflection, not for prediction.

What a reading is

Hasta reads the visible features of the hand you photograph and describes them in the language of two traditions: Samudrika Shastra and Western chiromancy. It then says what those traditions read into such a hand, and what that might mean for how you work, relate and hold pressure.

That is a description of a tradition applied to your hand. It is not a forecast, not a diagnosis and not advice for any decision that matters. Where a reading is useful, it is useful the way a good question is useful.

What a reading will never contain

These are refused by design, in the writing and again in code before the reading reaches you. If you ever see one, that is a bug worth reporting.

What Hasta is today

Hasta is early. It is rate limited, it can be taken down without notice, and a stored reading may be cleared while the product is still being built. Complete a reading and download its PDF if you want to keep it.

Where a price is shown, it is what completing that one reading costs: one price, once, in Indian rupees, with nothing recurring and nothing added later. Accounts are not live yet. Emailing a completed report to an address you give is.

Your photo, your reading

The photo stays yours. It is sent to our server, and from there to Anthropic's Claude, to write your reading, and it is deleted once the reading is written. A small thumbnail made from it is kept with your reading. See Privacy for exactly what is kept.

The reading we write is yours to keep, share, print or ignore. Free and in full: the five things your hand says loudest, your palm in one sentence, the record of what we read from, and what we could not see. The rest of the reading, the ledger of signs and the PDF you keep complete for one price, once, stated in full on the panel where you complete it.

Fair use

Do not upload photos of people who have not asked for a reading, and do not upload anything that is not a hand. There is a limit on how many readings can be run in an hour, so please leave some for everyone else.

No warranty

Hasta is provided as it is. We do not promise it will be available, accurate or right about you, and we are not liable for decisions taken on the strength of a palm reading. For anything with real consequences, ask a person who is qualified to help.
