AnastomosisMap

Your bibliography has flaws.
Find them before reviewers do.

AnastomosisMap scans your citations for retracted sources, arguments resting on a single reference, and dependency chains that collapse under scrutiny — giving you a clear picture of where your paper is most vulnerable before it reaches a single reviewer.

What it finds

Retracted sources

Citations formally retracted from the scientific record — the kind that surface in desk rejections and reviewer reports, and that authors almost never catch on their own.

Arguments that could collapse

Claims your paper makes that rest on a single citation. Reviewers identify these immediately — and editors flag them as unsupported. Paired with ranked alternatives from Semantic Scholar so you can fix them before submission.

How it works

  1. 01

    Paste your bibliography

    Export BibTeX from Zotero, Mendeley, or JabRef. No PDF upload required, no account needed to try.

  2. 02

    Every citation is pressure-tested

    Each source is cross-checked against live retraction databases, evaluated for how much of your argument depends on it alone, and scored on data completeness — not just whether it exists.

  3. 03

    See exactly where your paper is exposed

    A dependency graph shows your citation structure with vulnerabilities highlighted. Red rings mark retracted sources. Orange rings mark arguments a reviewer could challenge. Click any node to see stronger alternatives you can swap in before you submit.

Built by Synthiq — proof, not a demo

This is a live example of the agent pipelines we build.

Under this page runs the kind of system Synthiq ships for clients: a multi-API, evidence-gated pipeline (Semantic Scholar, OpenAlex, two Claude models) with streaming progress, deterministic confidence scoring, and honest failure states. AnastomosisMap is our dogfood — the same engineering, sold as a service.
