Scite

Scite is a research platform that shows not just who cited a paper but how. Its Smart Citations classify each citing statement as supporting, contrasting or merely mentioning the original finding, drawn from an index of more than 317 million full text articles, preprints, books, patents and datasets licensed from more than 44 publishers. On top of that index sits the Scite Assistant, a research chat that answers questions with claims linked back to the exact sentence in the paper they came from. It serves researchers, PhD students, librarians and industry teams in fields such as pharma who need to assess whether a result has held up over time. Search runs across the full text index, citation alerts and dashboards track new engagement with chosen papers, Collections hold up to 1,000 papers on Basic and 10,000 on Pro, and article level Smart Citation reports summarize the reception of a single work. Pro adds API access and patent, clinical trial and grant datasets. An MCP endpoint lets outside assistants query the index, metered in monthly credits. Pricing is published for individuals with annual billing. Connect is free, with 25 MCP credits a month and no Assistant or Search access. Basic is $14 per month billed yearly ($168 a year) with full Assistant and Search access and 250 MCP credits a month. Pro is $35 per month billed yearly ($420 a year) with 2,500 MCP credits a month and API access, currently with a $60 API credit included. A fall promotion of 30 percent off is applied to these prices until September 30, 2026. Enterprise and institutional plans are arranged through the sales team. Scite is owned by Research Solutions, a research information company, and is headquartered in Henderson, Nevada.
