How it works
  1. 01

    You paste a claim.

    A sentence, an argument, a hypothesis. The more specific, the better the matches.

  2. 02

    We query 200M+ papers.

    We query live academic databases covering 200M+ papers and return canonical metadata — titles, DOIs, authors, venue.

  3. 03

    You get 5 verifiable sources.

    Click any DOI to land on the paper. We deduplicate by DOI and title to keep the list clean.

What this tool does NOT do
  • It will not invent a citation.If 200M+ papers contain nothing that matches your claim, we say so. We will not fill the gap with a plausible-sounding fake.
  • It will not write your paper.This is a discovery tool. Drafting belongs in the full Truessay app, where every paragraph is grounded in retrieved sources before it's written.
  • It will not rank by “authority” alone.We surface what the academic graph returns for your query. Read the abstracts. Trust your discipline. Verify the DOIs.
Why we built this

Every “AI essay writer” that hallucinates citations made the same trade: fluency over fact. We made the opposite trade. This tool is the proof.
