About AutoCite: Free Citation Generator

AutoCite is a simple citation tool that helps students, researchers, writers, and everyday web users create, organize, and manage citations faster without leaving the webpage they are reading. See a source you need? Cite it with one click. AutoCite automatically detects available source details from the current webpage and generates a citation for you. You can also copy text from a webpage and save it together with its source and citation—all directly from the Chrome side panel. What makes AutoCite different from other citation generators? AutoCite goes beyond generating citations. It helps you collect and organize your sources as you research. Create folders for essays, research papers, reports, or other projects, save citations directly into them, move multiple citations between folders, and manage your entire citation collection without leaving the webpage you are reading.
