Find the broken references in your paper before your reviewer does.
Upload your manuscript. ScholarMind looks up every reference in CrossRef and OpenAlex and flags the ones that don't exist, or whose authors, year or DOI don't match the published record. It's the check you need when an AI tool helped write the draft.
Free plan includes one full reference check every month. No credit card.

Reference & Citation Check
Find references that don't exist or don't match the published record, before a reviewer or examiner does.
What you can do with ScholarMind
Upload a paper, thesis chapter or patent (PDF, DOCX or TXT) and choose what you need.
Reference & citation check
Every reference in your paper is looked up in CrossRef and OpenAlex. You get a list of the ones that can't be found, the ones whose year, first author or DOI don't match the published record, and a link to each real record.
Paper summaries
A structured summary of any paper: what it claims, how it was tested and what it concludes. Useful for triaging a reading list or writing a related-work section.
Concept maps
The key concepts in a paper and how they connect, so you can see its argument at a glance or compare it with your own framework.
Patent analysis
Upload a patent and get its claims broken down by type and scope, the technical areas it covers, and an AI assessment of what looks novel. It's a reading aid built from the patent text, not a prior-art search.
Built not to make things up
General-purpose chatbots will invent a plausible reference when they don't know one. ScholarMind looks references up instead, and on Professional every analysis also goes through these checks:
