Why it holds up
AI made it trivial to generate citations that look right and aren't. Folio is built the other way around: nothing reaches your bibliography without passing through four layers of checking.
See how integrity worksPaste a URL, DOI, or ISBN. Folio pulls the real record from Crossref, OpenAlex, and Semantic Scholar, so the citation matches the source, not a guess.
Folio flags retracted papers and expressions of concern before they reach your bibliography, so a withdrawn study never quietly props up your argument.
Scholar AI reads only the sources you added, and every claim links back to the exact passage. No open-web guessing, no invented citations.
Export a proof-of-work report that shows how the draft came together, so you can stand behind the writing, and the citations, as your own.
Six tools that used to live in six tabs, now one workspace that spans the whole job.
An exportable authorship report, verified citations, and AI that answers only from your own sources. Built to hold up when your originality is questioned.
Share one assignment link. Every student submission arrives with a verifiable record of how it was written — the process, the citations, the AI use. Read, grade, and export from one roster. Free for instructors.
Folio Studio builds the diagrams your review needs — PRISMA flow charts, forest plots and meta-analysis, funnel plots, and CONSORT diagrams — then exports print-quality SVG or PNG. Free, no sign-up.
Search Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, and Crossref in one box, follow the citation graph, then have AI build a cited synthesis matrix from the papers you choose.
Track topics, authors, journals, and citations, with weekly email digests, so the literature comes to you instead of the other way around.
Ask questions across your library and get answers grounded in the papers you actually read, each one cited. It assists your thinking; it never replaces it.
Paste a URL, DOI, or ISBN and Folio pulls the full record and formats it instantly. Switch between six styles in a click, with no reformatting.
Design, distribute, and analyze rigorous research surveys, with AI item generation, Delphi rounds, and one-click translation. Part of the Chair plan.
Start a draft and set your citation style. Ten seconds.
Add sources by URL, DOI, or Zotero import. Folio pulls and checks the metadata for you.
As you write, Scholar surfaces sources you already have, checks citations, and proofreads in place.
Export to DOCX or PDF with a formatted reference list, and a record that the work is yours.
APA, MLA, Chicago, IEEE, Harvard, Vancouver. Switch in one click, no reformatting.
Ask your sources questions, get suggestions as you write, proofread on demand.
Share for feedback. Comments anchor to the exact text. You decide what gets resolved.
DOCX, PDF, BibTeX, RIS. Your bibliography, your formats, your data.
Click through a project. Every stage that used to demand its own tool now lives in Folio.
One search across Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, and CrossRef. Follow the citation graph to the work that matters, then build a synthesis matrix — method, sample, findings, limitations — with every cell traceable to its source.
ReplacesA dozen Google Scholar tabs, three database logins, and a literature table you maintain by hand.
