Submit to peer review with verified references
Peer reviewers check references. If a cited paper doesn't exist or the metadata is wrong, your manuscript gets flagged—or desk-rejected. CheckMyThesis runs a comprehensive verification against five databases and catches errors that manual checks miss.
15%
of manuscripts are desk-rejected for reference issues
What's at stake
Desk rejection for citation errors wastes 6–12 months of research effort and delays your publication record
The risks you can't afford to ignore
Desk rejections due to citation errors waste months of work
Co-authored papers accumulate references from multiple contributors with varying accuracy
Journal policies increasingly require AI disclosure statements
