Conch AI Citation Generator vs Cramly

Conch AI Citation Generator creates bibliography citations for academic papers in APA, MLA, or Chicago style. It supports websites, books, and academic journals, with entries for APA 7th edition, MLA 9th edition, and Chicago 17th edition notes/bibliography style. The standalone generator runs in a browser, and users can copy formatted citations without signing up. If author fields are empty, the citation begins with the title. The maker says citation formatting and text calculations take place locally in the browser and source details are not stored on a server.

The Chrome extension works on desktop. Conch presents its platform for student study and writing, and its terms say the site is intended for users at least 18 years old.
