# netintel.dev Batch Translation

> netintel.dev Batch Translation is a paid API for AI agents from netintel.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Translates an array of strings in a single request, preserving caller-assigned IDs and returning per-item status, with glossary enforcement, tone/formality control, and partial success so one failed item never aborts the batch.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability netintel-dev-batch-translation-f07e34e4 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Translate all these UI strings to French — keep 'Acme' untouched, use a friendly and concise tone, and make sure each string comes back with its original ID so I can map the results: [{"id":"btn_save","text":"Save changes"},{"id":"btn_cancel","text":"Cancel"},{"id":"greeting","text":"Hello, Acme user!"}].

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to translate many strings in a single HTTP call, especially when caller-assigned IDs must survive round-trip so you can reassemble a string table. Prefer it over single-string endpoints when you have 2–200 items to localize, when partial success is acceptable, when you need glossary enforcement or brand-name protection, or when you want per-item confidence scoring and an overall batch quality grade. It is particularly well-suited for CI/CD localization pipelines, mobile app string tables, and e-commerce product copy.

## Known failure modes

- Individual items can fail with reasons: structure_broken, unparseable, truncated, llm_unavailable, timeout — while the rest of the batch succeeds
- Exceeding 200 items or the 64KB total body limit may reject the entire request
- Invalid ISO 639-1 target language code or unrecognized language alias returns an error
- Payment of 0.05 USDC not provided or rejected via x402 protocol blocks the request
- Glossary conflicts with protected_values may cause per-item warnings

## How this service works

Translate many independent strings in one request — each with a caller ID preserved in the response — with per-item status, glossary and tone support, and partial success so one bad item never fails the batch, so agents can localize whole string tables in a single call.

## Output

An array of result objects in input order, each carrying the original caller-assigned ID, a status of 'ok' or 'failed', the translated text (null if failed), detected source language, a confidence value, any warnings, and a failure reason if applicable. The response also includes an overall 0-100 quality score and a letter grade A-F for the entire batch.
