Evidence for Impact

Reference Verifier

Paste a reference list — with or without DOIs. Each entry is cross-checked against CrossRef and OpenAlex to detect AI-fabricated ("hallucinated") citations, recover the correct metadata and DOI, and export a clean CSV or RIS file for Zotero.

1 · Paste your reference list

One reference per line (APA or similar). Entries wrapped over several lines are re-joined automatically. DOIs, where present, are detected and verified directly.

2 · Process log

Every lookup step is recorded live — what was searched, which candidates were found, and how each verdict was reached.
Log will appear here once verification starts…

3 · Verification results

Verified = confident match in the databases. Likely match = close match found, but details differ (check the retrieved record). Not found = no plausible match — possibly fabricated, though books and older or non-indexed works can also legitimately be absent.
