What types of data can SmartCite search
Smartcite searches across over 250+ million academic papers from the most powerful academic databases in the world. When extracting data from papers, Smartcite uses the full text if available or the abstract otherwise.
This ensures you always get the most comprehensive and relevant results.
How accurate are the results from SmartCite
Smartcite assumes that 95% of the information is accurate, but as with any AI-driven tool, accuracy may vary.
To ensure your research is reliable:
• Double-check sources provided by SmartCite.
• Review the original papers and citations for critical information.
We make this process easier by transparently linking every insight to its original source, so you know exactly where the information comes from.
What happens to papers uploaded to SmartCite?
Your uploaded papers remain completely private.
SmartCite will:
• Never share your files with anyone.
• Ensure your data is stored securely and accessed only by you.
Your privacy is our top priority.
What is SmartCite not ideal for?
SmartCite is not currently designed to:
• Answer questions or provide insights that are not written in academic papers.
