Side-by-side diff view
See exactly what would change before you accept — your input on the left, the formatted output on the right, per reference.
Product · Web app & Microsoft Word add-in
Paste any messy reference list — RefRight parses it, applies the right style for APA, MLA, Vancouver, IEEE, AMA, Chicago, Harvard, or any of 54 journal-specific profiles, verifies every DOI against CrossRef, and flags retracted papers before you submit.
● Product walkthroughs, integrations, and deployment enquiries are handled by the Svela AI team
Three core capabilities
Designed for researchers, postdocs, medical writers, and editing professionals — not a generic AI assistant repurposed for citations.
8 base styles (APA, MLA, Vancouver, Chicago, IEEE, AMA, Harvard) plus 54 journal-specific profiles — Nature, Cell, NEJM, The Lancet, JAMA, IEEE Trans, and more. Switch between styles in one click.
Auto-fill DOIs from CrossRef, flag missing fields with one-click fixes, and check every reference against the Retraction Watch database before you submit.
The planned Word add-in works as a task pane, auto-detects your bibliography, shows a side-by-side diff, and supports accept or reject actions per reference without leaving Word.
Journal compliance
Each journal has its own quirks: italicised titles in Nature, full first names in JAMA, square-bracketed citations in IEEE. RefRight encodes 54 of them as profiles you can apply in one click.
See exactly what would change before you accept — your input on the left, the formatted output on the right, per reference.
Full control over the rewrite. Review every reference individually, or accept the whole batch with one click.
Built from the Citation Style Language files journals actually publish — not approximations. Custom profiles available for any in-house style guide.
