Scite · AI Citation Intelligence for Science
Shows how scientific papers have been cited — whether supporting, contrasting, or mentioning the original findings — across a corpus of 1.2 billion citation statements.
Best for
Researchers and scientists who need to evaluate the evidentiary weight behind specific claims in the literature
Not ideal for
General research overviews, non-academic topics, or users who need the full text of papers
Who it's for
Scientists and researchers who need to assess the reliability and replication status of specific findings
Scite is an AI-powered research tool that analyses how scientific papers have been cited by subsequent studies. Rather than simply counting citations, Scite classifies each one: whether the citing paper supports, contrasts with, or just mentions the original findings. This citation context helps researchers assess whether a claim has been replicated and supported, challenged, or is simply referenced in passing — a meaningful distinction that raw citation counts cannot capture. Scite's Smart Citations feature appears directly in the text of papers and search results, letting researchers see the weight of evidence around a specific claim at a glance. The Assistant feature allows users to ask research questions and receive answers synthesised from citation context rather than from model training data alone. Scite covers more than 1.2 billion citation statements across a large corpus of published science. A free plan is available with limited searches; paid plans unlock unlimited access, Smart Citations in full text, and advanced search filters.
