Taqti checks whether Urdu poetry is in meter. Type a couplet or a whole ghazal and see in an instant whether it scans — with the bahr named, the feet marked out, and the weight of every syllable shown.
• 48 classical meters and their variants — khafif, hazaj, ramal, muzari, mujtas, mutaqarib, rajaz, kamil and more
• Full scansion of every line: foot boxes, syllable weights (1 and 2), and a note wherever a poetic licence was used
• Repair suggestions for lines that are out of meter — izafat, tashdid, synonyms
• Verified couplets in the same bahr from Ghalib, Mir, Iqbal, Daagh, Momin, Zauq and others
• Urdu and English interface
• Save to your bayaz, share, make a PDF
• Meter checking works fully offline; only the Pro features Tashreeh and rewrites send the couplet or line you ask about to our AI provider
The engine is rule-based, not a guess: audited against 14,000+ lines by 13 classical poets.
Pro unlocks radeef & qafia checking, an explanation of each couplet, lessons in arooz, the complete reference list, and removes the daily limit.

Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• A ghazal in a Hindi matra measure or a rarer bahr now reads as in meter when it is. The verdict no longer said "out of meter" while every single line was fine.
• Stricter with lines that do not scan: a broken misra is far less likely to be accepted, alone or inside a couplet.
• Added Bahr Rajaz Musaddas Salim.
• Corrected the reading of بھلیاں, and moved a reference couplet by داغ that was filed under the wrong bahr.
