Verify scholarly references by cross-checking each citation against PubMed, CrossRef, Semantic Scholar, and bioRxiv to validate metadata. This process locates authoritative records, normalizes author names and DOIs, and flags unverifiable or ambiguous entries for manual review.

Yes, you can format bibliographies in Vancouver, APA, AMA, Nature, Chicago, or IEEE styles. The process applies your chosen style to normalized metadata, distinguishing or updating preprints with published versions to produce a clean, publication-ready reference list.

The best way to cross-reference in-text citations is to run an audit that checks every in-text citation against the reference list and vice versa. This ensures all cited works are traceable to authoritative databases and resolves missing or conflicting entries.

Yes, citation verification includes duplicate detection and merging to resolve conflicting records. It retains the most complete metadata from cross-checked databases, ensuring the final bibliography contains accurate and non-redundant scholarly references.

References are flagged for manual review when they are unverifiable or ambiguous across authoritative databases. If citation metadata cannot be confidently matched or normalized, the system isolates the entry to prevent incorrect formatting in the final publication-ready bibliography.

No specific workflow is required, but the tool is designed for integration with manuscript workflows and Claude plugins. You can paste your manuscript with citations and request reference verification and normalization of PubMed IDs, DOIs, and page numbers directly.
