PreFlight AI Checks Research Papers Before Peer Review
A manuscript-auditing workbench that scans LaTeX files and citations for retractions, dead DOIs, unsupported claims, and missing research baselines.
Field notes
The advertised workflow accepts LaTeX and BibTeX material, maps citations to manuscript claims, and checks references against Crossref, OpenAlex, PubMed, and curated retraction data. The sample output labels a Nature citation as formally retracted and distinguishes it from an active NeurIPS reference. The site also describes browser-worker parsing for math and BibTeX structures, alongside a claimed zero-server-retention model; those operational claims are presented by the site and are not independently verified here.
