About

Paste a DOI into QuickBib to retrieve a ready-to-use BibTeX citation for the associated publication. It also accepts DOI links, arXiv links and identifiers, including older forms such as hep-th/9901001, journal article URLs, and article titles.

QuickBib recognizes these input types automatically and can resolve a DOI from an arXiv entry, journal link, or title using fuzzy search. Journal URL support includes APS, Nature, Science, PNAS, IOP Science, Sci-Post, ScienceDirect, and other publishers. Its doi2bib3 backend fetches and formats the resulting BibTeX, with the same input support available through the command-line interface for scripts and automation.

Researchers and writers can use the graphical interface while collecting references, whereas automation workflows can call the CLI directly. Metadata comes from Crossref and arXiv rather than runtime AI or machine learning, so generated references remain reproducible.

QuickBib is open-source software licensed under GPLv3, with cross-platform availability that includes Windows and macOS and a web app accessible on mobile devices. The Linux desktop release requires Linux with snapd and runs on x86_64 (amd64) systems; the current version is 0.9.8.
