Scite analyzes how papers cite each other — shows whether citations support or contradict the original claim (unique feature).
Use Smart Citations to see if a claim is actually well-supported by evidence — cite a paper, Scite shows if it's 'supporting', 'contradicting', or 'mentioning' other papers.
Citation Network view shows how ideas are connected across 100M+ papers — see the 'genealogy' of an idea.
Research Feeds — follow topics and Scite alerts you when new papers cite your research (great for staying current).
Cite-While-You-Write plugin — write in Google Docs or Word, Scite suggests relevant citations as you type.
Literature reviews made easy — input your research question, Scite generates a structured review with supporting/contradicting papers.
Free tier covers basic citation analysis — upgrade for citation feed and advanced network analysis.
