Citation index that shows whether papers support or contradict
scite indexes over a billion citation statements and classifies each one as supporting, contrasting or merely mentioning the cited claim, so a paper's citation count can be read as evidence rather than popularity. Its Assistant answers research questions with references drawn from that index, and a Reference Check audits a manuscript's own citations before submission. Browser extensions and a Zotero plugin push the classifications into Google Scholar, PubMed and a personal library.
Free tier caps reports and dashboards; Personal is about $20/mo billed monthly or roughly $12/mo on annual, with institution plans quoted by sales.
Use tool βThe citation-classification dataset is the moat β no other research assistant tells you a paper has been contradicted 14 times. Use it to vet sources, not to discover them; Elicit and Consensus are better at the initial sweep.
Watch out: A high 'supporting' tally is not peer review β it counts citation sentences, so a widely repeated but wrong claim can still look well supported.
Side-by-side fact sheets against the competitors our research names β pricing, platforms, API and both verdicts on one page.
No reviews yet β be the first to review scite.
Reviews are tied to your EffectHub account β one review per tool, so the rating for scite reflects real users.
