CiteTrue

What CiteTrue is

CiteTrue checks the one thing AI-assisted writing gets wrong most dangerously: whether the cited sources exist and say what the text claims. It screens references for authenticity so fabricated or mismatched citations surface before submission rather than after.

What you can do with it

• Verify that references resolve to real works
• Screen a bibliography for suspicious entries
• Check whether a quotation matches its source
• Reduce risk before submitting a thesis or report
• Clean up a reference list efficiently

Who it is for

• Students and researchers
• Editors checking reference-heavy manuscripts
• Supervisors reviewing submissions

What to watch out for

• A clean check means the citation resolves, not that the argument using it is sound; read the source yourself
• Coverage depends on databases and languages, so niche or non-English sources may not verify
• Absence of a match can be a metadata problem rather than a fake citation
• Verification results should be recorded, since a wrong flag on a real source is damaging
