What uses credits?

Document analysis uses credits. Sharing an analysed document through Share for Feedback, or reviewing it and leaving comments, does not use additional credits. Running a new analysis follows the usual credit model.

Share for Feedback can help tutors, supervisors, colleagues, editors and peer reviewers discuss findings while keeping the original work unchanged. Explore the features.

Finding the right fit

Start small, or bring Ref-Check into a wider workflow.

Ref-Check can support someone checking an assignment or manuscript, or a larger organisation reviewing citation and reference accuracy across teams or cohorts. Optional sharing allows people to discuss findings and provide feedback; decisions remain with tutors, reviewers and other professionals.

Individuals

Useful for students, researchers, academics, editors and professional writers.

Teams

Invite colleagues or peer reviewers to annotate checked documents and provide constructive feedback.

Institutions

Discuss staff or student access, pilots, local guidance and information-governance requirements.
