Genderize

Predicts the likely gender of a first name from a database of 100M+ names across 200+ countries. Best for enriching contact records, personalizing outreach, or inferring demographics when only a name is known. Returns a gender label with a probability score, optionally scoped by country for higher accuracy. A Demografix API, sibling to Agify (age) and Nationalize (nationality). 1 endpoint available through Lava’s AI Gateway. See the Genderize API docs for full documentation.

Supports both managed (Lava’s API keys) and unmanaged (bring your own credentials) mode.
