Check your bibliography before your instructor does
In short
To verify your bibliography before submitting, paste your full reference list into a citation checker that matches each entry against authoritative databases — Crossref, OpenAlex, PubMed and CourtListener. If any of your research went through an AI assistant, some references may not exist even though they look plausible, and a single fabricated source can undermine an otherwise solid paper. Checking is free and needs no account.
If any part of your literature search went through an AI assistant, some of your references may not exist — even the ones that look completely plausible. Instructors increasingly spot-check bibliographies, and a single fabricated reference can turn a writing aid into an academic-integrity case.
A two-minute pre-submission check
- Copy your entire reference list — any citation style works.
- Paste it into the checker. No account needed.
- Fix what's flagged: partial verdicts show exactly which field is wrong (year, authors, journal) with a corrected citation you can copy.
- Investigate not found results — find the real source, or remove the claim that relied on it.
What this tool is not
CiteProve verifies that your sources are real and your citation details are accurate. It is not a plagiarism detector and does not judge your writing. Verifying your references is good scholarly practice, not an admission of anything.
