How it works

Paste your article URL and one citation per row in the format Title | URL | Author. The tool generates an Article block with a citation property listing every source as a CreativeWork. Drop it in your article <head> alongside (or combined with) your main Article schema.

Why AI assistants reward citing content

Assistants are built to be source-faithful. When they choose which content to quote, a tiebreaker they actively use is "does this source cite its own sources?" - content that does gets disproportionate citation weight because it lowers the hallucination risk for the assistant. Making the citations machine-readable via schema moves you from implicit ("there are links in the body") to explicit ("this article claims 8 sources, all named with URLs"). The full mechanism is in our citation algorithm guide.
