About EasyCite: Auto Citation Grabber

Stop opening new tabs to manage your bibliography. Most citation generators force you into a heavy, cloud-based workflow requiring logins, messy exports, and endless tab switching. EasyCite is built for speed. It lives entirely inside your Chrome popup, meaning no accounts and no cloud syncing. Just fast, accurate citations that paste perfectly into your document. Features: Keep the format: Never manually format a paragraph again. When you copy a citation, EasyCite uses rich-text injection. Hit Ctrl+V in Google Docs or Word, and your citation drops in with mathematically perfect hanging indents and preserved italics. The Essential 8: Instantly format sources for the most demanding disciplines. Full support for APA 7th, MLA 9th, Chicago Author-Date, Harvard, IEEE, Vancouver, AMA, and ASA. Smart Auto-Detector: EasyCite scans hidden webpage metadata to automatically detect whether you are citing a Journal Article, YouTube Video, News Article, or standard Webpage, applying the correct formatting rules instantly (you can also manually select your source type). Bibliography Stash: Don't just save links. Save personal notes, summaries, and exact quotes attached directly to your citation while you read. Local Session Manager: Save all your citations during a study session into a private list, then export the entire alphabetized bibliography in a single click. Want to close some tabs? Just save a source in your list and return to it anytime, all in EasyCite. 100% Private & Account-Free: Your research is your business. Everything is saved using your browser's local storage. We do not track your sources, and you will never be asked to create an account.
