Launch date: how the API works it out
POST /v1/business reads a launch date when you send launch_date as YYYY-MM-DD. The API adds every digit of the date and reduces the sum. To reduce means to add the digits until one digit is left.
This is the same date number that GET /v1/day returns, the same for everyone. Then the API reads that number against the owner's mulank (birth day number) and bhagyank (destiny number). It uses the same fit rule as a phone number or a name.
Take Acme Inc., owned by John Doe, with a launch date of December 12, 2026. The date adds up to 16, and 1 plus 6 gives 7, ruled by Ketu. John Doe's two numbers are both 6, ruled by Venus.
Venus counts Ketu, read as Mars, as neutral, so the fit is neutral. The launch block holds date, number, planet, an about line and the fit, with each link and its outcome. To choose a date instead of checking one, call POST /v1/dates with the owner's birth date.
Send month=2026-12 for December 2026. It reads every date of that month the same way and lists the good ones in good. Each date also carries the owner's personal_day as a theme, which is not judged.
The API reads the number of the date only. It uses no birth time and no planet positions, so it does not pick an hour.
