  2. Bring your reference list

    Paste your whole reference list, including any citations ChatGPT suggested, or use references already in your conversation.

    Or start with the public example ↓

  3. Ask Manusights to check them

    Name Manusights in your message, or type @Manusights. Without the name, ChatGPT may check a short list with its own web search instead.

Try it with public references

A DOI can open.
Is it the right paper?

No file needed. Copy this complete example into a ChatGPT conversation with Manusights enabled. It pairs one matching citation with a deliberate DOI mismatch.

Compare both linked records. The second DOI belongs to a different paper; confirm any suggested correction with the publisher before changing a citation.

Use Manusights to check these two public citations. The second deliberately has the wrong DOI. Show the external record and any possible correction for me to confirm. 1. Jumper et al. Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold. Nature. 2021. doi:10.1038/s41586-021-03819-2 2. Polack et al. Safety and Efficacy of the BNT162b2 mRNA Covid-19 Vaccine. New England Journal of Medicine. 2020. doi:10.1056/NEJMoa2035389

Before you submit

Check a journal’s AI-use policy

Replace the journal name in this prompt. Read the linked publisher policy before deciding what to disclose; check the available record’s date and any missing information.

Replace the journal name

Use Manusights to find [journal name]’s AI-use and disclosure policy. Link to the publisher source, show when the available record was checked, and say when information is missing.

Read the result with context

Know what the result means

Matching record
The citation corresponds to an external record. Read the paper to decide whether it supports your claim.
Mismatched details
Compare the title, authors, year and DOI with the linked record before correcting the reference.
Retraction notice
Open the notice and read its context before deciding how to use or discuss the paper.
Unresolved or unchecked
Check the original source yourself. An unresolved result is not proof that a paper was invented.

What your Manusights account adds

In ChatGPT, Manusights uses the account you connect during setup. With it you can check references, look up journal AI-use policies and start a manuscript preview: a readiness score, a verdict and the main risks a reviewer may raise.

A Full Review is a detailed report on one manuscript, ordered on manusights.com. Once a Full Review is on your account, you can read and download it in ChatGPT.

A few useful details

What if setup or a check fails?

If ChatGPT asks you to reconnect, reconnect Manusights in ChatGPT and ask again.

If setup or a check still fails, retry once and note the step that failed. Email erik@manusights.com with a public example. You can also try the website reference checker.
