Gender API API Integrations

Build and run workflows using the Gender API API. Use 1000s of source-available triggers and actions across 1000+ apps. Or write custom code to integrate any app or API in seconds.

Overview

The Gender API is a simple, free API that allows you to determine the gender of a first name. This is perfect for any application or website where you need to know the gender of a person's name, such as for personalized content, targetted advertising, or for sorting results.

Here are some examples of what you can build with the Gender API:

  • A name directory that sorts names by gender
  • A website that generates personalized content based on the user's gender
  • A social networking site that groups users by gender
  • An advertising platform that target ads based on gender
  • A sorting tool that sorts names or results by gender
