The Predict Gender by Name API represents an innovative leap in using data-driven information to discern a person's likely gender based on first name alone. In a world characterized by diverse identities and evolving gender perspectives, this API offers a tool that can provide valuable demographic information for a variety of applications.
Drawing from a large dataset spanning names from a multitude of cultures and regions, the API employs advanced machine learning algorithms to predict the gender associated with a given name. By analyzing patterns, historical data and linguistic correlations, the API extrapolates statistically significant trends that have emerged over time.
One of the strengths of this API is its adaptability to different industries. Marketing strategists can integrate this tool into their campaigns to personalize content according to expected gender preferences. This can lead to greater engagement and resonant messages that resonate more effectively with the target audience.
However, it is crucial to note that the predictions made by the API are probabilistic and not deterministic. The API recognizes the fluidity of gender identity and the limitations of assigning gender based on names alone.
In addition, the API respects data privacy and ethical considerations. It operates under strict privacy protocols, ensuring that information about predicted gender is used responsibly and without compromising the anonymity of users.
In conclusion, the Predict Gender by Name API encapsulates the intersection between data analytics, machine learning and social understanding. Its ability to predict gender based on names has potential in a wide range of applications, such as marketing, human resources, customer service, and user experiences in the digital realm. By responsibly leveraging historical patterns, this API contributes to a more informed, personalized and considered approach to interactions and decision making.

When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.

Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.
API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.
To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, look at the ‘X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining’ header. For example, if your plan allows 1000 requests per month and you've used 100, this header will show 900.
To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit’ header. For instance, if your plan includes 1000 requests per month, this header will display 1000.
The ‘X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset’ header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3600, it means 3600 seconds are left until the limit resets.
