How the CleverReach Gender-API Integration Works
The integration connects CleverReach with Gender-API through Zapier's automation platform. When a new subscriber joins your CleverReach list, Zapier captures the subscription event and extracts the subscriber's first name. This name is sent to Gender-API, which analyzes it against a database of over 6 million names and returns gender information with accuracy scores. The enriched data is then automatically written back to the subscriber profile in CleverReach as a custom field, making it immediately available for segmentation, personalization, and campaign targeting.
Setting Up Your CleverReach Gender Detection Workflow
Setup is straightforward and takes just minutes: First, connect your CleverReach account to Zapier with appropriate permissions. Add your Gender-API credentials to Zapier. Create a new Zap with CleverReach as the trigger, selecting "New Subscriber" as the event. Add Gender-API as an action to analyze the subscriber's first name field. Finally, add another CleverReach action to update the subscriber record with the gender information in a custom field. Test the workflow with a sample subscriber to ensure everything works correctly before activating it for all new subscriptions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use gender data in CleverReach email campaigns?
Once gender data is stored in a custom field, you can use it in email templates with placeholders, create segments to send gender-specific campaigns, or use conditional content blocks to display different content based on gender. CleverReach makes it easy to personalize salutations and content using custom fields.
Can I enrich my existing CleverReach subscriber list with gender data?
Yes! You can export your existing subscribers, process them through Gender-API (via CSV upload or API calls), and re-import the enriched data. Alternatively, create a Zap triggered on "Updated Subscriber" to gradually enrich your existing database as profiles are modified.
Does the integration work with CleverReach forms and sign-up pages?
Absolutely! The integration triggers when new subscribers are added through any method - embedded forms, CleverReach sign-up pages, API submissions, or manual imports. All new subscribers will automatically have their gender detected and added to their profile.
How accurate is gender detection for international names?
Gender-API maintains a database of over 6 million names from 178 countries with an average accuracy of 98%. This is particularly valuable for CleverReach users in Europe who work with diverse, multilingual subscriber bases. The API provides confidence scores for each prediction.
What happens if a subscriber uses a gender-neutral name?
For ambiguous or gender-neutral names, Gender-API returns a lower confidence score. You can configure your workflow to only apply gender labels when confidence exceeds a certain threshold, or mark these subscribers separately for different handling in your campaigns.
Is this integration GDPR compliant for EU subscribers?
Yes, both Gender-API and CleverReach are GDPR compliant. Gender inference from first names is permissible under GDPR for personalization purposes. Gender-API processes data securely, doesn't store personal information beyond processing, and complies with all EU data protection regulations.
