CiteTrue
AI-powered citation checker that verifies references against trusted academic databases (e.g., Crossref, PubMed, arXiv) and flags likely fake/AI-generated citations.
CiteTrue is a free, AI-powered citation verification tool built for researchers, students, educators, and reviewers. It cross-references citations against major academic sources to validate key metadata like author names, publication year, journal title, and DOI, then provides a confidence score indicating how likely each citation is authentic and accurate. It’s designed to catch fake or inaccurate citations (including AI-hallucinated references) and help maintain academic integrity, with support for checking many citations at once.
