CiteMe

Citation generator and reference checker searching real scholarly records

About CiteMe

CiteMe generates and checks academic citations by searching scholarly databases such as OpenAlex, CrossRef, PubMed, and Semantic Scholar instead of inventing references. Users paste a DOI, ISBN, URL, or title, see the source record's provenance, and reformat it instantly in APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard, and dozens of other styles. Web, browser-extension, and document add-on versions suit students, researchers, and academic writers.
