How to pick a genre and model tier

genre tunes the translation prompt for the kind of content you’re translating. model_type trades off speed against quality for the length of content you’re translating.

Parameter	Type	Values	Default
`genre`	string	`NON_FICTION`, `ADULT_FICTION`, `CHILDREN_FICTION`, `RELIGIOUS`, `LEGAL`, `ACADEMIC`	-
`model_type`	string	`lite` (faster, short-form), `plus` (higher quality, long-form)	`plus`

genre and model_type are independent: pick the genre for tone/terminology and the model tier for the length/quality tradeoff that fits your document.

Example

1 from sarvamai import SarvamAI
2 
3 client = SarvamAI(api_subscription_key="YOUR_SARVAM_API_KEY")
4 
5 job = client.document_translation.create(
6     job_name="service-agreement-hi",
7     source_language_code="en-IN",
8     target_language_codes=["hi-IN"],
9     original_filename="service-agreement.pdf",
10     genre="LEGAL",
11     model_type="plus",
12 )

Request body equivalent:

1 {
2   "job_name": "service-agreement-hi",
3   "source_language_code": "en-IN",
4   "target_language_codes": ["hi-IN"],
5   "original_filename": "service-agreement.pdf",
6   "genre": "LEGAL",
7   "model_type": "plus"
8 }
