Bebop
Bebop provides a nice web interface to a list of publications stored in a BibTeX file. Bebop is based on a single BibTeX file as database. Listing by year, author, document type, keywords, research area. Search in document titles, generation of keyword cloud, displaying abstract, BibTeX and links to DOI, full text, slides, poster files, exporting to BibTeX. RSS feed of the publication list, unAPI support, zotero compatibility, adding new publications online (either by BibTeX code or by filling in specific fields), better user experience with AJAX. Permanent links to publications and categories, easily embedable into personal websites and CMS-based websites. Bebop uses j4bib to convert the BibTeX file into XML format. The web interface is built on top of the XML data to provide an easy navigation of publications. It is usable by anyone who keeps the list of their publications in BibTeX form. Installation takes 1 minute.

LumaCite
LumaCite is a browser-based reference manager and online citation toolkit for researchers, students, academic writers, librarians, editors, and research teams. Its cloud library lets users add sources manually, from online search, identifiers, PDFs, or web pages; organize records with folders, labels, and starred items; search by title, author, year, or identifier; edit bibliographic details; identify duplicates or missing metadata; and export selected references. Separate web tools generate citations and bibliographies, extract references from PDFs and text, check and complete citation metadata, reformat citation styles, and convert files such as BibTeX, RIS, EndNote, and CSL JSON. A Chrome extension captures references from research websites, and a Google Docs workflow inserts citations and builds bibliographies while writing. Public citation tools are available without a library account, while cloud library access requires approval-based beta access.

Check Your Draft
Check Your Draft is a browser-based pre-submission checker for students, researchers, and academic writers. Users upload a PDF or paste text to review references against eight scholarly indexes, including Crossref, Semantic Scholar, PubMed, arXiv, OpenAlex, DBLP, Google Books, and Open Library. The service flags references as verified, hallucinated, or outdated and can identify metadata problems and preprints with published versions. A combined report also highlights sentences classified as AI-written, mixed, or human; these are review signals, not proof of authorship. Additional tools include BibTeX cleanup, citation updating, DOI lookup, and single-reference checks. The product does not rewrite drafts or submit them to a shared plagiarism database. Users can preview scan results free; full reports are available through one-time purchases.
