whatlanggo and lingua-go
These are direct competitors—both are standalone natural language detection libraries for Go that serve the same purpose, with lingua-go claiming superior accuracy particularly for short and mixed-language inputs.
About whatlanggo
abadojack/whatlanggo
Natural language detection library for Go
This library helps Go developers identify the natural language of a given text string. You input any text, and it outputs the detected language (like English or Spanish) and the script used (like Latin or Cyrillic), along with a confidence score. It's designed for developers building applications that need to process text in multiple languages.
