For medical researchers submitting or revising a paper

Check every number and citation before you submit.

Sample sizes that disagree, miscalculated P values, DOIs that point to the wrong paper: find them before your reviewers do. Every finding shows its evidence, and you decide what to change.

What it actually catches

Small inconsistencies. Important corrections.

Three errors that are easy to miss during a tired reread and expensive to discover after submission.

Number mismatch

The abstract and results disagree

Abstract: 410 participants · Results: 412 participants.

Both numbers look familiar, so your brain quietly reads them as the same.

Impossible statistics

The effect estimate falls outside its own interval

OR = 0.454 · 95% CI = 1.124–4.311

Both values cannot be correct; the analysis output needs to be checked.

Citation mismatch

The identifier is real, but it points to another paper

The DOI opens, yet the title, authors, or topic do not match the manuscript.

MediCrab checks the source record instead of treating “the link works” as “the citation is right.”

Second opinion

When a conclusion still feels uncertain, ask another model.

Request a second opinion on one answer or conclusion. MediCrab surfaces the disagreements, so you can focus on what actually needs human judgment.

First assessment

This paper supports the claim that incidence is shifting to younger patients.

Second opinion

This is a cross-sectional comparison, not evidence of a time trend.

Disagreement: can this citation support the claim?

Three steps

Bring in the paper you are preparing to submit.

Choose the project folder

Select the folder that holds the draft, supporting data, and references.

Import the working manuscript

Import the draft you are revising so the check has a clear manuscript to follow.

Run the full-manuscript check

Review the collected number, citation, and consistency findings, then decide what to change.

Before you get started

What should I prepare?

Start with an existing Word, Markdown, or LaTeX draft. Keep supporting data and papers in the project folder so you can bring them into the review when needed.

Does my research stay on my computer?

Your project files are stored locally. AI review and online search send the content needed for the task to model or search providers. The application shows and records outgoing requests; review your institution’s rules before using research data.

Will changes affect my original files?

Your original manuscript stays unchanged. Review the finding and evidence before deciding what to change.

How do credits work?

First-time account activation includes 200 promotional compute credits. Online model and search features consume credits according to usage. Check the balance and usage in the app; a fixed number of full reviews is not guaranteed.

What does a finding mean?

A finding is a reason to review the evidence. Missing records, unsupported sources, and failed requests are distinct outcomes. You decide whether to change the manuscript; the tool does not certify a paper or replace scientific judgment.

Start with a real paper

Try it on the manuscript you are submitting.

Built for clinical and biomedical researchers who already have a complete draft, supporting data, and references.

Choose the folder. Import the draft. Start the check.

Review the findings, check the sources, and decide what to revise before submission.
