AI writing tools invent references that look real but don't exist. One misconduct meeting is all it takes.

Broken links look careless

A dead DOI in your bibliography signals to every marker that you didn't check your own sources.

What we don't do

If a reference doesn't exist, we won't invent one.

We flag it in the needs your review list — and tell you exactly why we couldn't verify it. Fixing it is your call.

We auto-fix

  • Broken or wrong DOIs
  • APA 7 formatting (italics, punctuation, order)
  • Hanging indents and spacing
  • Table of contents generation
  • Missing journal volume/issue where found

We only flag

  • References with no CrossRef or OpenAlex match
  • Ambiguous author names
  • Citations that appear in body but not in the list
  • References in the list that aren't cited anywhere
