Quickly cite a Website Source for writing essays & research papers

Citation Manager — Cite Any Website in Seconds Stop wrestling with citation formatting. Citation Manager turns any web page into a perfectly formatted reference with a single click, then keeps every source organized in one tidy library. Whether you're writing an essay at midnight or assembling a reference list for a research paper, it does the tedious part for you — accurately, instantly, and for free. Getting citations right actually matters: a misplaced year or a wrongly quoted title can cost you marks and hours of cleanup. Citation Manager handles the rules so you don't have to. Just open the page you want to cite, click the Citation Manager icon, pick your style, and copy. That's it. ★ Eight citation styles, done right Generate citations in APA (7th edition), MLA (9th edition), Chicago, Harvard, IEEE, Vancouver, AMA, and APSA. Every format has been rebuilt from the ground up to follow the official rules — correct author placement, proper punctuation, accurate month abbreviations, and real publication dates pulled from the page itself, kept separate from your access date the way the style guides require. Switch between styles with a single tap and watch the citation update instantly. ★ In-text citations too Alongside the full reference, you get a ready-to-paste in-text citation — (Author, Year) for author–date styles, (Author) for MLA — so you can drop quotes into your draft without breaking your flow. ★ A library that keeps everything Save any citation to your personal library and find it again in seconds: - Search by title, author, or source - Organize sources into folders for each assignment or paper - Sort by newest, title, author, or website - Edit any field — fix an author, title, or date the moment you notice it - Add a source manually whenever you need to ★ Build a complete bibliography Generate a full, alphabetically sorted Works Cited / References / Bibliography page in your chosen style — numbered automatically for IEEE and Vancouver — ready to paste straight into your document. No more hand-ordering your reference list. ★ Export anywhere Take your library wherever you need it: - Copy all citations at once - Download as plain text (.txt) - Export to BibTeX (.bib) for LaTeX - Export to RIS (.ris) for Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote - Back up and restore your entire library as a JSON file, so you never lose your work ★ Smart and effortless - Automatically detects the title, author, publication date, and publisher from each page using Open Graph, JSON-LD, and academic metadata tags - Optional auto-save captures a citation the moment you open the extension - Duplicate detection keeps your list clean — saving the same page again updates it instead of cluttering your library - One-tap copy with a clear "Copied!" confirmation - Undo any delete, so a mis-click never costs you a source - A keyboard shortcut opens the extension without reaching for the mouse - Friendly guidance when a page can't be cited, so you're never left guessing ★ Beautifully redesigned This version introduces a clean, modern interface built for focus: a crisp capture popup with editable fields, an elegant library view, smooth animations, and full dark-mode support that automatically follows your system theme. ★ Works in 41 languages The entire interface is translated into 41 languages, so students and researchers everywhere can work comfortably in their own language.
