Find out how studies have been supported, replicated, disputed, criticized, etc.
Search research directly
Never waste time searching for how a method, dataset, gene, organism, research result, etc. are spoken about in the literature. Search over 1.2b citation statements to see what experts are saying about virtually any topic.
Read a case study on how we helped a researcherUnderstand research by seeing what is said about it in newer publications
Quickly discover how a scientific article has been cited and if it has been supported or contrasted through Smart Citations. Smart Citations transform citations from a mere number into something that can be understood and digested on virtually any article you’re reading.
See if a publication has been supported anywhere you’re reading online
The scite browser extension for Chrome, Firefox, or Safari allows you to easily see how articles have been cited anywhere you’re reading online. It’s like having hundreds of millions of pieces of evidence on virtually any topic you’re interested in available to you only a click away.
Understand how people are citing your own work
Sign up for free and claim your articles to see how your own work has been cited. Email alerts allow you to keep track of new citations and see if others have found evidence that supports or contrasts your work. We offer ORCID integration too for easy sign-up and syncing of your articles.
Stop citing retracted and heavily disputed works unintentionally
Writing a research paper? The scite Reference Check allows you to easily upload your research articles to see how the references you’re citing have been cited by others. Ensure that you are citing reliable work by screening against retracted references and check to see if others have contrasted your references.
Keep track of research topics and evaluate research quality
Keep track of emerging citations to trending topics and research areas with custom scite research dashboards. Get updated when a study gets supported, contrasted, or receives a new editorial notice such as retracted or withdrawn.

scite is an incredibly clever tool. The feature that classifies papers on whether they find supporting or contrasting evidence for a particular publication saves so much time. It has become indispensable to me when writing papers and finding related work to cite and read.
Emir Efendić, Ph.D
Maastricht University
As a PhD student, I'm so glad that this exists for my literature searches and papers. Being able to assess what is disputed or affirmed in the literature is how the scientific process is supposed to work, and scite helps me do this more efficiently.
Kathleen C McCormick, Ph.D Student
Cornell
scite is such an awesome tool! It’s never been easier to place a scientific paper in the context of the wider literature.
Mark Mikkelsen, Ph.D
The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine
This is a really cool tool. I just tried it out on a paper we wrote on flu/pneumococcal seasonality... really interesting to see the results were affirmed by other studies. I had no idea.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
