Genderize
Your AI agent predicts customer gender from first names in real time, personalizing salutations and recommendations during live conversations. Process single names or batch up to ten at once, with statistical probability scores that guide confident personalization decisions.




Genderize brings probability-based gender predictions into every chat, so your AI agent personalizes interactions with data-driven confidence rather than blind assumptions.
Genderize
Real scenarios where AI agents use name-based gender predictions to craft tailored interactions, from e-commerce recommendations to event registration follow-ups.
A shopper types their name in your e-commerce chat widget. Your AI Agent sends it to Genderize and receives a 94% male prediction. The agent adjusts product carousels and recommendations to prioritize the men's collection. Relevance improves, browsing time increases, and the shopper finds what they need faster without manually filtering.
An event organizer submits ten attendee names through your booking form. Your AI Agent batch-processes all names through Genderize in a single API call, enriches each registration record with gender predictions, and generates personalized welcome emails with appropriate salutations. Your events team saves thirty minutes of manual data enrichment per group booking.
A customer named Yuki messages from Japan. Your AI Agent detects the JP locale, passes both name and country code to Genderize, and receives a localized prediction. Instead of guessing with a global average, the agent uses Japan-specific data to choose the right greeting. Cultural sensitivity handled automatically, zero human intervention required.

FAQs
Genderize returns a probability score (0 to 1) and sample count for each name. Your agent can be configured with a confidence threshold. Names above 85% probability get full personalization. Names below that threshold receive gender-neutral messaging. You control the cutoff based on your brand's comfort level.
Yes. Genderize supports batch requests of up to ten names per call. Your agent uses this for group bookings, team signups, or any scenario where multiple names arrive at once. Each name gets its own independent prediction with separate probability scores.
The count indicates how many data rows Genderize examined to produce the prediction. A count of 50,000 for the name 'John' means 50,000 records supported the result. Higher counts mean more reliable predictions. Your agent can use count as a secondary confidence signal alongside probability.
Yes. Genderize supports diacritics from any language and non-Latin alphabets. The API first tries an exact match, then falls back to a diacritics-stripped version, then attempts to parse full names into first names. Your agent can send names as customers type them without preprocessing.
Direct API calls require custom integration code for each channel and use case. Tars wraps Genderize into conversational logic, deciding when to query, what confidence threshold to apply, and how to adjust messaging. One setup covers web chat, WhatsApp, and SMS with consistent personalization across all channels.
Tars queries Genderize in real time during conversations. Predictions are used within the active session to personalize messaging. Tars does not build a separate database of gender predictions. If you want to persist this data, configure your agent to write it to your CRM as a separate step.
Genderize returns null for the gender field when no prediction is available. Your agent detects this and falls back to gender-neutral language. The conversation continues smoothly, and the customer never knows a prediction was attempted. No dead ends or error messages.
Yes. Passing a country_id parameter narrows the prediction to country-specific data. The name 'Kim' returns different gender probabilities for South Korea versus the United States. Your agent can detect customer locale and apply the appropriate country filter automatically.
