CiteProof checks legal citations against public records and reports what it could verify, what needs attention and what it could not check. Its stated coverage includes US federal cases through CourtListener and US Code sections through GovInfo. People can paste text or upload a PDF or Word document. The free check covers citation existence and identity, while paid checks add quoted-passage comparison and a downloadable Verification Record.
The distinction between existence and identity is central: a real reporter location can still be cited under the wrong case name. Quote checking adds another layer by comparing the quoted wording with a nearby source passage and pin cite. The homepage lists one paid brief at $49 and a five-brief pack at $199, with further plans on its pricing page. Demonstration examples are explicitly precomputed fixtures, not proof that a visitor's own document has been checked live.
The service does not decide whether a case is still good law, whether it supports the proposition being argued, or whether a filing is correct. State statutes, regulations and secondary sources are outside the stated checking scope. It says extraction and lookup are deterministic and no AI model sees the brief. Its privacy summary distinguishes non-persisted uploads from paid findings retained for ninety days, and says extracted citation strings go to the public-record services for lookup. Attorneys still need to review the sources and use the appropriate citator for subsequent history. A clean report is not a legal assurance.
