Scite analyses academic citations and classifies them as supporting, contrasting, or mentioning — rather than just counting how many times a paper has been cited — giving researchers a qualitative picture of how a work has been received by the scientific community. Its Smart Citations feature shows you the specific context in which a paper was cited, helping you quickly understand whether subsequent research confirms or challenges its findings. Scite is particularly valuable for assessing the reliability of research before citing it or making evidence-based decisions.
