scite.ai Reviews & Product Details

The assistant! It feels like having your own personal research helper, always aiming to answer your questions as logically as possible and backing them up with references. It's an excellent starting point for any project, useful for studying - I recommend using it instead of any other AI tool to my students- , and perfect for quickly answering any 'what if' questions that come to mind while you're doing research. The assistant is so good that I tend to forget scite can do much more than that. It is probably the most used AI tool in our lab. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When tasked with providing a quick literature review in table form to identify research gaps, it tends to include any study that could be loosely extrapolated to answer the question, rather than focusing on directly relevant sources. Often, if there is little supporting reference for the question, it responds with answers that cover all possibly related topics, rather than addressing the specific points I was seeking, which feels redundant. Additionally, when I request an answer limited strictly to the specific question, it usually returns a generic response without any references, instead of simply stating that it could not find relevant information.

I have been using scite.ai primarily as a powerful tool for conducting literature reviews by searching its extensive database for citation statements. The visualisation tools are incredibly beneficial as they help in easily understanding how different papers are linked together. I particularly value the research assistant feature, which feels like an 'academic' Chatbot that helps me get quick answers with references, albeit with some caution due to its not entirely up-to-date models. I love that scite.ai simplifies the process of following citations and seeing how they are interconnected, which is a common challenge for researchers. The intuitive feature that allows me to find key papers with AI through natural language is outstanding. Starting with a strong research question yields remarkable results from just a single search. scite.ai's answer summary cross-checking is impeccable, providing confidence against hallucinations, and I rarely encounter mistakes. It has enabled me to find fascinating papers overlooked by traditional search methods, and cross-checking citations directly saves considerable time. I am highly satisfied with the ease of setup and the fact that it efficiently complements my current work with other tools like my reference manager and Obsidian. Overall, I find scite.ai invaluable for literature research, and I would highly recommend it to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I find the interface of scite.ai a bit slow to respond and not as sleek as I would prefer. Additionally, I wish scite.ai utilized some of the newer frontier AI models for compute work to enhance its capabilities. However, I do recognize that at their current price point, they offer an amazing deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love scite.ai because it significantly helps me speed up my literature reviews when working on research projects and preparing scientific articles. It is especially useful because, when conducting searches, I find articles that I probably wouldn't have considered initially, allowing me to advance more quickly with my publications. I appreciate that it provides me with relevant snippets from articles that are useful for answering the research questions posed. Additionally, the ability to ask it questions in natural language and its exclusive use of academic sources is very convenient for me. I found the tool to be very accurate, which I value greatly, as I have tried to find other options like Perplexity, but none match the accuracy offered by scite.ai. The ease with which I was able to start using the tool is another plus; being someone with good computer experience, I found it very easy to adapt to using the software. The speed at which scite.ai operates is a great advantage, allowing me to delve into other aspects of my research thanks to the time I save on literature review.

The scite.ai algorithm sometimes presents articles that are neither accurate nor relevant to the research area I am developing, especially after making several queries. Additionally, I would like scite.ai to include publications that do not have a DOI, as not accessing these articles results in a loss of a large amount of available information.

I like Scite.ai because it has saved me a lot of research time by helping to identify reliable sources for relevant topics in my master's production. Previously, the process of inspecting a large number of articles before filtering the most pertinent ones was extensive and laborious. Now, with Scite.ai, everything is faster and more targeted, especially through the research assistant, which is a very useful feature. This tool quickly facilitates the identification of the necessary bibliography for my scientific production, making my specialized literature overview more precise and efficient. The ease and intuition with which I was able to set up and start using Scite.ai are also very positive points. Additionally, I highlight the interface, which is a very important factor along with the price, and the results obtained in the searches that persuaded me to choose Scite.ai. The efficiency in time-saving that I have when using it is a determining factor for considering it again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
