Sourcely is an AI academic source finder that turns your draft or topic into a list of credible, citable references.
Sourcely addresses the discovery side of research: paste an essay draft or research question and it finds relevant academic sources, summarizing why each one fits. It searches across millions of papers and surfaces works with citation context. Users can filter by relevance and credibility and export references into their workflow. Students and researchers use it to strengthen literature coverage quickly.
Sourcely is freemium, offering free searches per month with paid plans for unlimited source finding and premium features.

Yes, free searches are available each month; unlimited use requires a paid plan.
Sourcely is a web product for researchers; a public API is not its primary offering.
Sourcely focuses purely on source discovery from your own text, complementing writing tools that assume references already exist.
Undergraduates paste essay drafts and receive credible sources to strengthen arguments with proper citations. Researchers fill literature gaps by discovering adjacent work they missed. Writers validate that their claims have supporting evidence. Thesis advisors use it to check reference coverage in student work.
Source quality varies and verification remains the writer’s job; free searches are limited monthly. It complements rather than replaces library databases. Google Scholar, Elicit and Connected Papers serve overlapping discovery.
Sourcely is a web tool where users paste drafts or topics and receive sourced references with relevance summaries. Results export into reference managers for citation. Free monthly searches support casual use, with subscriptions for unlimited access. There is no deployment work. Ongoing use is episodic around writing projects, with users verifying sources in databases before citing them in academic work.
Sourcely fills a specific gap: finding credible sources from your own draft. It speeds up the early research phase substantially. Writers must still verify what it finds, and free searches are limited, but for students it is a genuine shortcut.
