A Python 3 phonetics library.

Established

This library helps developers work with phonetic algorithms. It takes words or strings as input and provides phonetic codes (like Soundex or Metaphone) or calculates the 'distance' between two words based on how they sound or are spelled. It's used by developers who need to implement sound-alike or fuzzy matching features in their applications.

139 stars. No commits in the last 6 months. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you are a developer building software that needs to identify words that sound similar or are likely misspellings, such as in search functions, data cleaning, or record linkage.

Not ideal if you are an end-user looking for a ready-to-use application for fuzzy string matching without writing code.
