Revision Breakage
Creating reader-friendly endnotes traditionally requires 50+ hours of manual labor per title. Citation Maven uses semantic extraction to solve this.
Our patent-pending algorithm uses punctuation hierarchy to extract meaningful "incipits" (opening phrases) with 97% accuracy.
Page references are implemented as calculated fields. When margins change or paragraphs are cut, a simple update command refreshes every page number instantly.
Full support for Chicago (17th Ed.), MLA, APA, Bluebook, and Oxford styles. Handles complex "Ibid" and short-title references automatically.

"What would have required a skilled editor working for two full weeks was accomplished in the time it takes to review a book proposal."

Citation Maven was founded to bridge the gap between scholarly rigor and production efficiency. The technology was conceived when Dr. Caplan realized that authors naturally encode semantic boundaries in their citations through punctuation.
Rather than treating punctuation as noise, Incipit Genie uses it as a hierarchical map to automate the most laborious aspect of academic publishing.
