What it is.
Ours, and we sell the service it runs inside. Three phases: one finds the anchor text opportunities inside the draft, one runs deep research for authoritative sources, and one embeds the URLs it has verified.
You get outbound citations without a manual research pass, and no invented links. Sources are ranked in tiers with analyst firms like Gartner and Forrester at the top and niche blogs at the bottom, so the tier decides what gets used.
What you get.
- Anchor text opportunities identified inside the draft
- Sources ranked in tiers, with analyst firms at the top
- Verified URLs only, so no invented links reach the page
- External citations added without a manual research pass
How to set it up.
Find the anchor opportunities before you search. Searching first produces sources looking for a home.
Rank your source tiers explicitly. Ours runs analyst firms at the top and niche blogs at the bottom, and the tier decides what gets used.
Use a deep-research step for the lookup, because the good sources are rarely on the first page of a single search.
Verify every URL resolves before it goes in. This is the single rule that separates this from a model guessing at citations.
Cap the links per section, or a 2,000-word piece arrives looking like a bibliography.
Pair it with the internal linking pass, which uses a different rule set and runs on the same draft.

Use cases
Sourcing a thought-leadership draft
The piece argues a position and carries no citations. Hand it the draft and the first phase finds the anchor spots, then deep research ranks sources by tier, so analyst-firm citations land where whatever ranked first would have gone.
Purging invented links
A model-drafted piece arrived with citations nobody checked. Run it through and every URL is verified to resolve before it reaches the page, so the invented ones never make it in.
Citations reviewers accept
A regulated-category draft keeps bouncing back from compliance. The tier ranking puts analyst firms at the top of what gets used, which is the sourcing standard the reviewer keeps asking for.
Best for
Thought leadership that needs backing
A tiered source list gets you analyst citations in place of whatever ranked first, and that changes how the piece reads.
Drafts with invented citations in them
The verify-before-embed rule closes it, and inventing a citation is the failure mode of asking a model for sources.
Regulated or technical categories
Source tiering is how you keep a compliance reviewer from sending the draft back.
