pubmed-verifierBatch-verify PMID citations against PubMed and catch the hallucination that existence checks miss — a REAL PMID pointing to a DIFFERENT paper (the most common AI-fabricated citation). Five-state citation verification (correct / mismatch / partial / invalid / unknown), citation-context parsing, dual fuzzy matching, Crossref DOI cross-check, retraction detection (RETRACTED papers capped at partial), correct-PMID suggestion, SQLite cache, CSV/JSON claims, HTML/JSON/text reports. Dual data sources with automatic Europe PMC fallback, optional NCBI API key (faster batches), Crossref polite pool, Retry-After backoff, UA rotation, host circuit breaker. Network failures are honestly reported as unverified, never as "not found". Zero dependencies, runs fully local. Triggers — verify PMIDs, check citations, validate references, citation audit, reference check, PMID check, audit references, batch verify references, AI hallucination detection, verify DOI, DOI check, validate citations, PubMed citation verifier.

Researchers or journal editors can batch-verify PMIDs in manuscripts or bibliographies to detect fabricated or irrelevant references. The tool flags invalid PMIDs and cross-domain citations for human review, ensuring academic integrity.
Medical writers use the verifier to check citation accuracy in clinical reports, regulatory documents, or systematic reviews. Content matching with keyword expansion helps identify mismatched references, improving document reliability.
Teams deploying AI tools to generate medical literature can run output through this verifier to catch hallucinated citations. The tool automates verification and suggests replacements, reducing manual fact-checking.
Cochrane or evidence-based medicine groups can automatically validate all references in review manuscripts. The HTML report provides a shareable audit trail for compliance with journal or funder requirements.
Pharmacovigilance teams verify citations in adverse event reports or signal detection publications. Batch processing of PMIDs from drug safety databases ensures referenced literature actually supports the claims.
The tool is free and open-source, but the organization offers paid support for integration, customization, and training. Revenue comes from annual support contracts or consulting for enterprise deployments.
A hosted version with a web UI, API access, and advanced reporting features. Users pay per verification or via monthly subscription. Additional revenue from premium features like private integrations or higher rate limits.
Basic local verification is free; premium cloud features (e.g., cross-document analytics, collaborative review, custom keyword dictionaries) are charged per user or per organization. Enterprises get dedicated servers and SLA guarantees.
💬 Integration Tip
Run as a command-line tool in CI/CD pipelines for automated checking on document commits. For web integration, wrap the script in a Flask/FastAPI endpoint and expose a form for file uploads.
