Scite is a great product bringing equity and transparency to the world of scientific research (which tends to be a black box). Excited to see them launching such a comprehensive search, looking forward to using it to double check on my own assumptions and beliefs. I imagine this will be very useful to both seasoned scientists and students as they navigate the field.

Hey there! I am working on this with @josh_nicholson and I am very excited about it. I think it has the potential to be the "new" google scholar by providing a way for people to see how any topic is cited. Now researchers will be able to rapidly find differences in results, replicated results, literature gaps, and citations for claims they are making. I am personally really excited to use it in my own research by searching claims I am making and see criticisms or support for them right away. I am confident it will make me a much better researcher. If you have any questions or feedback on how we can make this the best way to do research let Josh or I know.

It's been launched! https://scite.ai/search/citations

This is great news!

Thanks for sharing this! Josh here (co-founder and CEO of scite). scite is a new platform introducing "Smart Citations" – citations that allow users to see how a scientific paper has been cited by providing the context of the citation and a classification describing whether it provides supporting or contrasting evidence for the cited claim. Peer-reviewed paper on our tool: https://direct.mit.edu/qss/artic... We’re excited to launch our Citation Statement Search for private beta. The feature will allow users to directly search all 888M+ citation statements from over 26M full-text scientific articles at once. This can be useful for easily finding facts and figures on any topic or seen in a different way really transforms and opens up the world’s scientific publications into expert statements, opinions, and assessments on any topic. We are opening the tool to beta users to better inform our development.

Smart. It's positioned to uniquely solve for some shortcomings in how scientific findings are used, reproduced, discovered, shared, cited, attributed. It'll probably be difficult for the scientific publishing industry to turn back on the realization that this has opened a category of problems/ solutions that can't be ignored.
