What it does

  • References handled for you

    Upload a .bib or paste DOIs into the library, cite in the text, and the reference list builds itself (APA for English, GB/T 7714 for Chinese).

  • Proper structure

    Title, authors, abstract and keywords are set by the template; sections are numbered 1, 1.1, and equations, figures and tables can be referenced.

  • Switch styles, keep the text

    The same paper can switch to APA 7 or IEEE conference format without touching the body.

  • No invented references

    Only entries in your library are cited; if you mention one that isn’t there, docraft asks you to add it rather than guessing.

How it works

    docraft typesets the paper and lists citations and changes to confirm.
