Built so your work stays defensible.
Trust isn’t a feature we bolted on. It’s the architecture. Here’s how CiteDash keeps every claim grounded and your data under your control.
Grounded by construction
Every citation in CiteDash is a database object that resolves to a real paper, never text a model typed. Any generative output containing citable claims passes through our verification layer (the Fact Checker) for claim-to-source checking before it reaches you. A reference that doesn’t resolve to a real paper is rejected and never shown; claims that aren’t supported by their source are flagged or stripped.
Sentence-level provenance
When you read a paper, every answer cites the exact span it came from. Quotes and extractions bind to character offsets in the source, so you can always trace a sentence back to where it originated.
A full audit trail
Every verification is recorded, and CiteDash can produce an AI-use disclosure for your work, the kind of transparency a supervisor or examiner can rely on.
Your data, your control
Your account, uploaded documents, and drafts are yours. From your Account page you can export your data, or permanently delete your account and the data tied to it, a real deletion, not just a hidden flag.
AI processing & infrastructure
To power search, reading, and drafting, CiteDash sends the relevant content to AI-model and embedding providers for processing, and runs on established, security-audited cloud infrastructure. A named list of providers is available on request for institutional review.
