What you get

  • Every reference looked up in Crossref, OpenAlex and the DOI system with our Citation Checker tool, then read by a person.
  • A verdict for each one: found, wrong detail (a DOI that points to another paper, a wrong year, title or author list) or not found, which often means an invented citation, for example one written by a chatbot.
  • Retracted papers and papers with an expression of concern or a correction, flagged with the notice date.
  • A corrected reference list in your style (APA, Vancouver, IEEE, Harvard or BibTeX), with the right DOI added where one exists.
  • Books, reports and web pages that the scholarly indexes miss are checked by hand against the publisher or the page.
  • One re-check of your corrected list after you edit it, included in the price.

Good to know

Send the reference list as plain text, a .bib or .ris file, a Word file or a PDF when you reply to the quote.

We check that each reference exists and that its details are right. We do not read the papers, judge whether a source supports your claim, or edit your text. Your document is used only for the check and deleted after delivery.

Want to look first? Ask your AI agent to run the free Citation Checker tool on up to 10 references at a time.
