Integration details
Description
Inciteful connects your assistant to an academic citation graph built on OpenAlex metadata (CC0), across all fields. Keyword search finds papers that use your words. The citation graph finds the papers a field cites and builds on, including work worded differently. Give it a few seed papers, or start from a topic, and it can: - Rank similar papers by shared references and co-citation - Map the network around your seeds: important papers, reviews, recent work, and top authors, journals and institutions - Trace the citation paths between two papers - Run your own read-only SQL over the graph - Read open-access full text from PubMed Central - Export BibTeX or RIS for Zotero and other reference managers Every graph result names the method that ranked it and carries provenance details, so you can report your citation searching. It's free and needs no account or API key. It is not a systematic search. Coverage follows OpenAlex, so for systematic reviews combine it with other databases, trial registries and grey literature.
