About Scite
Scite is an AI-powered research platform that helps users understand scientific papers by showing how they are cited in other studies. Instead of just listing citations, it explains whether a paper is supported, disputed, or simply mentioned by later research. This makes it easier to judge the trustworthiness and real impact of academic work.
