Scite AI

Smart citation analysis — see how academic papers have been cited: supported, contrasted, or mentioned

About Scite AI

Scite uses AI to analyze how academic papers have been cited by other research. Unlike Google Scholar which just counts citations, Scite classifies each citation as 'supporting', 'contrasting', or 'mentioning' — helping researchers understand whether findings have been validated or challenged by subsequent research.
