A manuscript-auditing workbench that scans LaTeX files and citations for retractions, dead DOIs, unsupported claims, and missing research baselines.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-07 issue.

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.
