Can I use Spacy for this use Case? Looking for suggestions.

I am building an application to help users find a niche set of businesses. I am wanting to build a search bar that a user could write in Natural Language, and then have that process into a specific query that could then be run through something such as Typesense.

I reached out to Typesense and they said that " It would be hard to pull off using just Typesense, because it requires query analyzing.

For eg, you'd need something that takes what a user enters and says, this part of the query is a city, vs business type, vs category, etc.

So you would need something in front of Typesense that analyzes the query, breaks it up into defined filters and then sends that to Typesense for search.

You might want to consider using Google Natural Language API for this. And may be there are other similar SaaS products as well that can help do this. You would take the output from that, convert them into Typesense queries and have Typesense run a structured search for you.

My question is if Spacy could potentially be used for something like this, instead of using Google Natural Language.

Thanks for your help!
