The Citation Graph

Trace any idea through the literature.

The Consensus Citation Graph turns a single seed paper into a complete map of the work that built it, the work it inspired, and the studies most often read alongside it. Find the right papers in seconds, not days.

What can you do with the Citation Graph?

Most citation tools stop at the graph. Consensus picks up where they leave off. Build your set, then ask it questions, run a synthesis, or draft a literature review without ever leaving the page.

SEARCH

Snowball forward and backward from any paper

Start with a single seed and trace the lineage of an idea in both directions. Pull every reference the paper cites, every paper that has cited it since, and follow the chain as far as you need. What used to take days of clicking through Google Scholar happens in seconds.

FILTER RESULTS

Triangulate a niche with multiple seed papers.

Add two, three, or more papers and Citation Graph surfaces the work that connects them. The more seeds you add, the sharper the focus. Use it to scope a thesis, position a grant, or find the overlap between two literatures that rarely cite each other.

CITE THE RESEARCH

Ask follow-up questions to your curated list

This is what makes Citation Graph different. Once you've built your set, attach it directly to a Consensus search and start interrogating it. Ask "what do these papers say about X," "where do they disagree," or "which ones used a randomized design." Every answer is grounded in the papers you curated, with citations back to the source.

What's powering the Citation Graph?

The Citation Graph is built on the same research infrastructure that powers Consensus search, giving you confidence that the papers you surface are comprehensive, high quality, and traceable.

220+ million papers indexed

The Citation Graph draws from the full Consensus corpus, covering every major field from medicine to the humanities.

Full-text search, not just abstracts

We index the full text of open access papers, so co-citation and relevance signals reflect what's actually in the paper, not just the title and abstract.

Quality signals on every paper

See citation count, journal rank (SJR), study design, and sample size at a glance. Sort and filter your graph by what matters for your work.

Direct links to the source

Every paper in the Citation Graph links to the full Consensus paper page, with the abstract, key takeaways, and an option to read the PDF when available.
