Scite is a powerful tool that uses AI technology to evaluate citations and the credibility of scholarly resources in every field of study. The information found on Scite is continuously updated to provide accurate results and citation context for researchers. Scite can help students and researchers make informed decisions about the sources they use and organize their research using their AI assistant, the reference checker, and the personalized dashboard tool.

AI-based article discovery tool that finds scholarly articles, creates a map of scholarly conversations by linking paper citations, and allows you to pull out key findings from an article or a group of articles with its paper summarization tool and through its AI Research Assistant chatbot. It offers summaries of scholarly articles along with paper snippets from supporting and contrasting articles, thus allowing you to evaluate the impact and quality of the scholarship. You can also use it to run a reference check on citations. Created by scholars for scholars, it now includes a "Research Assistant" chatbot that while AI-powered, is constrained to the scholarly corpus. You can have conversations with papers and on topics of interest with reduced fear of so-called "hallucinations" (vs. with other generative AI chatbots). This tool integrates with the Zotero citation manager. You can also create a scholarly profile to link your own publications into a dashboard of materials and watch for citations of your work. Because it is based on retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), it checks its responses with the latest updates to their scholarly citation index. The scite crew also spends considerable effort to find and remove any predatory journal articles or conference proceedings that may be found in some larger scholarly repositories that harvest materials at scale with a bit less attention. Please let the library know about your experience with this tool so that we can offer feedback to developers. - S. Clapp, 10/10/24
