Getting Started Introduction to LangID Api Even if we base our work on Google Ajax Apis which offer a language recognition api themselves, we decided to run a couple of APIs too, offering some more datas and a different structure. By now we support Json and Xml output formats and just a parameter. Our APIs can be queried from curl,wget or similar softwares/libraries so that quite any language can read it.

Get your API key As we needed to be sure about people abusing of our APIs, we recently introduced an authentication for developers using our system. Every developer can signup for free and use our API with a limit of 1,000 calls per hour ( which is ~720,000 calls per month). This is a lot and should suit the necessities of any non-commercial website.
