categorizer
Groups like items
A categorizer is a person or thing that sorts items into categories.
In computing, a categorizer is software that automatically classifies data—emails into folders, images by content, documents by topic.
The spam categorizer caught most of the junk mail.
The word appears more often in technical contexts than everyday speech.
