## What it is

Scite shows how a paper has been cited and labels each citation as supporting, mentioning, or contrasting the original claim. This helps researchers see whether later work confirmed or disputed a finding rather than just counting citations. Founded in 2018, it indexes citation statements pulled from full text articles.
