AI research assistant with Smart Citations
Updated
Scite is an AI research platform for finding and evaluating scientific literature. Its Smart Citations show whether later studies have supported, challenged or merely mentioned a paper's claims. The vendor says its full-text citation search spans more than 300 million articles, preprints, books, patents and datasets.
You ask a question or search for a topic. Scite retrieves relevant passages from its indexed literature, and the assistant writes an answer with citations that link to the source sentences. Smart Citation reports then show how each cited paper has been treated by later work.
Researchers, students and industry experts use it, along with universities and organizations. The vendor cites over 2 million users and names Purdue, Novo Nordisk and Johns Hopkins among institutions.
Scite lists Basic at $12 per month billed yearly, Pro at $40 per month billed yearly, and a custom Enterprise plan. Basic and Pro include a 7-day free trial, and Pro seats can be added at $40 each.
Elicit is built around extracting structured data from papers for literature reviews. Consensus returns evidence-based answers drawn from published studies with a consensus-style summary. SciSpace emphasizes reading and explaining papers, including PDF chat, where Scite emphasizes how papers cite one another.
