Capabilities

Research-grade citations,
zero friction

Built for researchers who need accurate BibTeX, fast. No accounts, no servers, no compromises.

Smart Automation

Auto-fetches complete citation data — authors, year, journal, DOI — across three academic APIs with automatic failover.

Multi-Source Reliability

Crossref for accuracy, arXiv for preprints, Semantic Scholar for breadth. Each paper tries all three sources before giving up.

Unicode & International

Handles special characters, diacritics, and non-Latin scripts in paper titles and author names without corruption.

Privacy First

Everything runs in your browser. No paper titles, citations, or usage data ever reaches our servers. Local storage only.

Batch Processing

Process hundreds of papers in one go with automatic rate-limiting and smart retry for failed lookups.

Citation History

Every citation you generate is saved locally. Search, filter by source, organize into folders, and export anytime.

Workflow

Three steps to BibTeX

From paper titles to formatted citations in under a minute.

1

Paste titles, DOIs, or arXiv IDs — or drag a .bib/.txt file.

2

Generate

One click fetches citations from Crossref, arXiv, and Semantic Scholar.

3

Export
