Immutable release. Only release title and notes can be modified.
v1.1.4
fb8cd00

Six bibliographic databases in the check cascade, annotated Word documents and cleaned .bib files for theses, and imports from EndNote and Citavi.

  • Six databases for every check. Alongside Crossref, OpenAlex, DataCite and the Internet Archive, Benthic now queries PubMed and Semantic Scholar by title when a medical or computer-science paper is cited without a DOI or PMID.
  • Annotated Word files. When you check a .docx thesis, Benthic can export a copy with native Word margin comments right on the cited sentences, unreferenced entries, year mismatches and uncited statistical claims, without touching your formatting.
  • Cleaned .bib files and an interactive LaTeX file graph. For LaTeX projects and .bib files, Benthic exports a cleaned .bib file that keeps your \cite{key} identifiers, fills in verified DOIs and comments out retracted or unconfirmed entries. The project structure view now renders an interactive SVG graph of \input and \include files.
  • Writing signals for theses. Document checks now point out secondary citations ("quoted in", "zit. nach") and empirical or statistical statements that carry no citation nearby.
  • Clearer evidence in full texts. When searching a downloaded PDF for a claim, Benthic highlights overlapping words and shows the page badge and a one-click copy button for the passage with its citation.
  • EndNote XML and Citavi. Reference checks and the local library now read EndNote XML (.xml) as well as Citavi 6 projects (.ctv6 and .ctv6archive).

Download the DMG below or from https://benthic.isoglu.com/download/. Benthic 1.0.1 to 1.1.3 offer this update inside the app (Update now); from 1.1.2 on, the app installs only updates signed with the Benthic release key. Benthic is free and not notarised by Apple, so a new installation needs one approval on first launch in System Settings › Privacy & Security (Open Anyway). Benthic.mcpb adds Benthic to Claude Desktop. benthic-zotero-1.1.4.xpi is the Zotero plug-in: in Zotero 7 or 8, open Tools › Plugins and choose Install Plugin From File.
