Smarter citation verification for scholarly publishing
Ensure citations are real, relevant, and accurate. Veracity delivers scalable citation screening designed for modern research integrity workflows.
Veracity Integrity Checks
All checks are performed directly on raw manuscript content - no pre-structured metadata or tagging required.
| Check | What We Do | What You Get |
|---|---|---|
| Source Resolution & Matching | Resolve references against external source records and verify metadata | Flags for not-found, mismatched, or potentially fabricated references, confidence-weighted |
| Author Representation | Analyse citation authorship and author concentration (beyond "et al.") | Detect notable self-citation and author representation |
| Relevance Analysis | Compare citation context to manuscript topic | Identify potentially low-relevance references |
| Retraction & Editorial Status | Resolve retractions, expressions of concern, errata, and corrections | Clear indicators for sources with editorial notices |
| Unused Reference Detection | Match in-text citations to bibliography entries | Flags for unused or orphaned references |
Data and standalone reports are available via API, ready for seamless integration into your favourite submission system or manuscript review package.
Accelerate Review & Reclaim Editorial Time
The vast majority of references in a submission are completely fine. Why waste time manually checking all of them? Manual citation screening takes ~37.5 minutes per paper. Veracity takes you straight to the potential issues, allowing editors to spot-check clean results in 1–2 minutes and investigate only the flagged anomalies.
~11× faster citation screening
Built for Editorial Workflows
Screen Early & Often
Works directly from raw manuscript files. No XML tagging or pre-processing is required from your team, allowing you to catch issues at the earliest possible stage of the submission lifecycle with zero added friction.
API-Ready Integration
Seamlessly plug Veracity into your existing peer review platforms, submission systems, and editorial environments.
High-Volume Pipelines
Designed for scale to handle continuous, massive submission volumes across your entire publication portfolio.
Specialized Citation Analysis
Purpose-built for verifying references. By focusing entirely on citations, we deliver deeper, more precise insights than generalized integrity tools.
Comprehensive Citation Analysis
Our core philosophy is that effective citation screening starts with context. Before flagging risks, Veracity gathers, unifies, and enriches external dependencies (the cited sources) to streamline the reviewer's job. By surfacing and organising the necessary information first, we make augmented review possible.
The automated extraction and verification engine identifies:
- Potentially fabricated or mismatched references
- Retracted sources
- Low-relevance citations
- Unused references
- Unusual author concentration or self-citation
