Before you connect
Questions about franc.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
How does the Language Detector Engine handle short text?
The Language Detector Engine uses n-gram analysis to identify languages even in short strings. If the text is too short to be certain, it returns an undefined status to prevent incorrect guesses.
Can the Language Detector Engine identify rare languages?
Yes, it supports over 400 languages. This includes common global languages as well as less common regional dialects and languages like Zulu or Esperanto.
What happens if the Language Detector Engine can't find a match?
If the input is too ambiguous or doesn't match any known patterns, the Language Detector Engine returns 'undefined'. This ensures your AI agent doesn't hallucinate a language.
Does the Language Detector Engine support Spanish and Portuguese?
Yes, the Language Detector Engine identifies both Spanish and Portuguese accurately, providing standard ISO 639-3 codes for both.
How accurate is the Language Detector Engine for mixed text?
The Language Detector Engine analyzes character frequencies to handle mixed content. It can identify the primary language even when multiple languages appear in the same string.
Can I limit the Language Detector Engine to specific languages?
Yes, you can use a whitelist to force the Language Detector Engine to only look for specific codes. This is ideal for businesses that only support a few specific regions.
How does the Language Detector Engine help with support tickets?
It identifies the language of incoming tickets instantly. This allows your AI agent to route messages to the correct regional team without manual intervention.
Why is this better than asking Claude to detect the language?
LLMs often hallucinate languages for short strings or names. They also struggle to provide standardized ISO codes reliably. This engine uses mathematical N-gram analysis (the same technique behind Google Search language detection) to deterministically map text to one of 400+ ISO 639-3 codes.
What does it mean if it returns 'und'?
'und' stands for Undefined. It means the text is too short, mostly numbers, or too ambiguous to confidently map to a single language. This is a feature. it prevents your routing logic from making false assumptions.
Can I force it to choose between specific languages?
Yes. Pass an array of ISO 639-3 codes to the 'only' parameter (e.g., ['eng', 'por', 'spa']). The engine will only calculate probabilities within that subset.
