Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

See the real impact of any paper. Not just how many times it's been cited, but how. The Scite extension shows you citation context directly on Google Scholar, PubMed, and thousands of journal websites, so you can quickly understand whether a paper's findings have been supported, contrasted, or simply mentioned by other research.

Key features:

- View Smart Citation counts on paper listings across Google Scholar, PubMed, and major publisher sites

- See at a glance how many citations support, contrast, or mention a paper's claims

- Click any citation badge to open the full Scite report with detailed citation statements

- Works automatically on pages you already use for research

Displays Smart Citation context and classification badges on scholarly web pages (Google Scholar, PubMed, journal sites)

Traditional citation counts don't reveal how a paper was cited. This extension shows whether citations support, contrast, or merely mention a paper's claims, helping researchers quickly assess a publication's real impact.

User browses Google Scholar, PubMed, or journal websites → extension content script automatically detects paper DOIs/identifiers → fetches citation tallies from api.scite.ai → displays colored badges showing supporting/contrasting/mention counts → user clicks badge for full detailed report on scite.ai

Target users: Researchers / Academics / Graduate students / Science journalists / Anyone evaluating scientific literature

index.js is heavily minified (~1.5MB) making it difficult to trace exact authentication or payment logic
Could not verify whether scite.ai API applies different rate limits or feature tiers based on authentication state
Cannot confirm whether clicking through to full reports on scite.ai requires a paid account without testing the live service

Monetization

No paid features detected

No subscription, premium, upgrade, purchase, price, stripe, paywall, or billing-related code found in the extension source. The deterministic heuristic returned isPaid=0. All keyword matches for 'pro', 'license' are false positives from minified code (property names, MIT license headers, React production builds). The extension's core features — displaying citation tallies and badges on scholarly pages — appear fully functional without any payment gating. The destination service scite.ai has institutional/business plans, but the extension itself does not gate features behind payment.

Confidence: 80
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / Medium
Login required: No
Reason: No login UI, authentication headers, tokens, or credential management found in the extension source code. The extension calls api.scite.ai/tallies and api.scite.ai/papers endpoints without any authentication headers, and the core workflow of displaying citation tallies on Scholar/PubMed pages works without requiring user authentication. The background.js context menu opens scite.ai/assistant on the destination website, and clicking citation badges opens full Scite reports on scite.ai — the destination service may require an account for full report access, but the extension's primary overlay/badge feature functions without login.
