Scite Assistant is a research tool for finding research-backed answers and working on written material.
It answers questions using large language models designed specifically for research workflows, rather than general-purpose models pointed at academic text.
The feature that matters most for research integrity is that it finds both supporting and contrasting evidence for a study, rather than assembling only what agrees with the question.
Control settings let you steer the Assistant toward specific tasks. You can let it decide whether references are needed, or override that behaviour when you know the answer must be cited.
Search filters narrow results by year range, topic, publication type or journal name, which is the difference between a broad answer and one grounded in the literature you actually trust. A free trial is available.
