What it does

Scite Assistant answers a research question by drawing on a database of over 317 million full-text articles, including paywalled sources. Each answer carries citation badges and links so the user can check claims against the original papers. Chats can be saved and papers organised into collections with citation alerts. It is available on the web and through an API, an MCP server, a browser extension and a Zotero plugin.
