Review Summary
Users appreciate Scite as a useful, easy-to-use tool that helps assess citation types and supports literature reviews by showing how papers are received and their reliability. However, multiple users complain about the mandatory upfront payment before the trial, paywall limitations, and technical issues especially on Chromium browsers. Additionally, its citation classification may be inaccurate or ineffective in certain fields, leading to mixed effectiveness depending on user needs.
