"Using Claude with NLP++" is a practical guide by David de Hilster published on 5 July 2026 on NLU Global, also carried on VisualText.
De Hilster sets the two technologies against each other — language models are powerful but opaque, delivering answers they cannot justify, while NLP++ is rule-based and every decision traces to a readable rule — and argues no choice between them is required. A model can help build an analyzer while the finished analyzer remains self-contained deterministic code with no API dependency. He is explicit about the limits: a one-line request will not produce a working analyzer, and the plan has to come from the developer.
