Key fields in the response include `input` (the name or email provided), `gender` (predicted gender), `probability` (confidence level of the prediction), and `details` (metadata like credits used and duration).
The response data is structured in a JSON format with nested objects. The main structure includes `input`, `details`, and `result_found`, followed by specific gender prediction fields.
Each endpoint accepts specific parameters: `first_name` for the first name endpoint, `full_name` for the full name endpoint, `email` for the email endpoint, and both `full_name` and `email` for the country origin endpoint.
The endpoints provide gender predictions based on names or emails, along with the probability of accuracy. The country origin endpoint also returns potential countries of origin based on the full name and email.
Data accuracy is maintained through the use of advanced algorithms and extensive databases that analyze historical name-gender associations. Regular updates and quality checks ensure reliable predictions.

You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
