RefPack works in three steps. Prepare your files, review each cited statement against its source, and deliver a pack your reviewer can follow from claim to passage.
Add your manuscript and the reference PDFs it cites. RefPack reads the manuscript on your computer, finds each cited statement and matches every reference to its PDF.
The manuscript, the source PDF and your decision sit side by side. Move through findings with the keyboard, or filter to the ones that need attention.

| No PDF | The reference has no PDF to check. | dashed grey underline |
Build the reference pack from your saved decisions and preview every page before you create it. The pack is a ZIP file of ordinary PDFs and a table, so no account is needed to open it.
Your manuscript, reference PDFs, projects and packs stay on your computer. RefPack's servers hold your account, project names and billing.
When you start an AI search, the selected reference PDFs and cited statements go to your AI provider: straight from your computer with your own API key, or through RefPack's relay on a RefPack-funded plan.
