For academics and research teams

Verify scholarly references and citation support

Check source identity, retraction status, bibliographic accuracy and claim-level citation support before your research reaches editors, reviewers or readers.

Core checks for researchers

Source identity

Compare titles, authors, dates, DOIs and publication venues across scholarly records.

Citation accuracy

Assess whether a real source actually supports the specific claim for which it is cited.

Publication safety

Surface retracted works and explainable risk signals associated with a target journal.

Tools from discovery to publication

01

Find works by author

Disambiguate researchers by institution and ORCID, then search their real publication records.

02

Audit the bibliography

Check metadata, DOI conflicts, duplicates and retraction status.

03

Review claim-level support

Compare manuscript claims with accessible abstracts or full text from the cited work.

04

Identify suitable journals

Find evidence-based journal candidates from similar published research.

Research quality checklist

  • Is every source real and correctly identified?
  • Does each citation support the attached claim?
  • Are any cited papers retracted?
  • Are there duplicate bibliography entries?
  • Are the target journal's identity and indexes verified?

Explainable evidence

Where possible, every result includes the matched record, DOI and data source. Automation accelerates expert review; it does not replace it.

Frequently asked questions

Which scholarly databases are searched?

Depending on the discipline and record type, searches can include Crossref, OpenAlex, PubMed, Europe PMC, Semantic Scholar, DBLP, ERIC and other verification sources.

Can it detect retracted papers?

Bibliography records and DOIs are checked against available retraction data, and detected retractions are clearly flagged.

Does it replace peer review?

No. It is decision support. Important findings should be confirmed against the original work and publisher record.
