Hey everyone,

I’m a student developer and just launched Veritas.

The Problem: Students use citation generators that are 90% ads, and they can’t tell which sources are biased or AI-generated.

The Solution: A free Chrome extension that:

  • Flags source credibility/bias instantly.
  • Generates MLA citations on the page (no ads).
  • Privacy: No accounts, no sign-ups, no data collection.

I've reached out to 100+ professors/teachers, but growth is slow (currently at 13 users). Logic is verified by faculty at IU, Harvard, and Yale.

I need your help with: 1. How do I reach students/educators at scale? 2. Any feedback on the landing page/UI?

Thanks for the feedback!

I made a free Chrome extension that verifies source credibility and generates MLA citations in one click.

Hi everyone,

I’m a student/developer and I got fed up with two things while writing research papers:

  1. Citation websites that are 90% ads and 10% actual tool.
  2. Not knowing if a source was biased or unreliable until my professor pointed it out.

So, I built Veritas. It’s a free Chrome extension that does two things instantly:

  • One-Click MLA Citations: Generates the citation right on the page you're reading so you don't have to leave the tab.
  • Source Verification: It flags the credibility of the site you're on using database matching (no AI fluff) so you know if a source is reputable before you cite it.

It’s officially live on the Chrome Web Store now and I’m looking for the first set of users to try it out and tell me what’s missing.

You can find it here: Veritas - Find Trustable Sources
