CiteLock document citation anchors
Generates clickable source anchors for every AI citation so you can verify answers in seconds
- Problem
- With 30 docs in a Claude project, the answer is impossible to verify—you open the file, flip pages, scan until you find it. The same for websites. Agentic citation and research is tenuous and unreliable.
- Solution
- Builds a paragraph-level index over uploaded docs or web snapshots; forces the AI to cite snippet IDs; renders them as clickable links that jump to the highlighted source passage. Supports PDF, Word, and web snapshots.
- Users
- Knowledge workers, consultants, legal professionals, and academic researchers using Claude/ChatGPT for document research
- MVP
- Parse PDF/Word/web and split into paragraphs with unique IDs; browser extension or local proxy that intercepts AI responses and injects citation anchors; clicking an anchor opens the local file and highlights the passage; support multi-document project folders
- Revenue
- Free for 3 projects; $9/month subscription for unlimited projects and team sharing; enterprise on-prem license
- Why now
- Claude Projects and long-context RAG are mainstream but citation verifiability is missing; PDF.js and local file system APIs make it feasible for a solo developer to build quickly
