AccuraCite checks every citation in your bibliography against 7 real academic databases — OpenAlex, Crossref, Semantic Scholar, PubMed, DBLP, arXiv, and CORE — catching fake citations, DOI mismatches, and even retracted papers before they end up in your work. In an independent benchmark against 933 citations (including ones deliberately built to be hard to catch), it caught 99.4% of fabricated references. Free tier available, no credit card required.
Hi all
I built this tool during my research job after finding fabricated citations in a paper I co-authored.
I published the benchmark and its dataset recently (link in the page) to make sure it works well.
Free tier is 50 credits/month, no credit card needed. Would love your feedback. Hope this is actually useful for your workflow.
