What's New

Stop asking AI chatbots for citations — they make them up. Citation Kitchen is a new standalone tool that searches five real academic databases and pulls verified sources for anything you're writing. It can also audit an entire paper's references to catch citations that don't actually exist.

🔬 Citation Kitchen

Two modes, one promise: every citation comes from a real, checkable academic source — not a language model's imagination.

🔍 Find Sources

This is where most people will live. Paste a paragraph from your essay, drop in a thesis statement, or describe what you're writing about — Citation Kitchen searches five major academic databases and returns a ranked list of real, verified sources that actually support your claim.

Every result comes plated with:

• A relevance score — the strongest matches rise to the top, so you're not scrolling through tangential hits
• A supporting quote — pulled straight from the source, showing exactly what in the paper backs your claim
• A ready-to-paste citation — formatted in APA 7, MLA 9, Chicago, or Harvard
• A short annotation — why this source is relevant to what you're writing, so you can decide if it fits before reading the full paper

Ask for 5, 10, or 15 sources per search. Found a winner? Save it to the Pantry for later. Changed your mind on format? Switch styles and every citation reformats instantly.

"Find 10 sources on microplastics in the gut microbiome"

"I'm arguing that social media worsens adolescent anxiety — find me real sources that support this"

[Paste an entire paragraph from your draft and get sources that back each claim]

🛡️ Verify Paper

Already have a paper with citations? Upload a PDF, DOCX, or paste the text — Citation Kitchen extracts every reference, resolves identifiers (DOI, PMID, arXiv ID), and checks each one against the same five databases.

Every citation gets a confidence-scored verdict:

• Valid — The source is real and the metadata checks out
• Fake — The source doesn't exist in any database. Common with AI-generated references
• Misattributed — The source exists, but the author, year, or title doesn't match
• Broken — The identifier resolves, but the linked record is incomplete or retracted
• Unverifiable — Not enough information to confirm or deny

For anything that comes back fake or broken, Citation Kitchen automatically finds a verified replacement on the same topic — with a ready-to-use formatted citation.

Quote verification runs on top of this: Citation Kitchen fetches the actual source content and confirms that quoted passages really appear in the cited work. If a quote doesn't match, you'll know before your professor does.

Second Serving lets you re-run just the citations that came back unverifiable — the rest of your results stay untouched.

📚 Five Academic Databases

Every citation — whether you're searching or verifying — is checked against real data, not a language model's memory:

• CrossRef — 150M+ articles across all disciplines
• Semantic Scholar — 200M+ papers with citation graphs
• OpenAlex — 250M+ scholarly works and metadata
• PubMed — 36M+ biomedical and life sciences articles
• arXiv — 2.4M+ preprints in STEM fields

🥘 The Pantry

Every source worth keeping goes in the Pantry — a persistent clipboard for verified citations you want to use later. Save as you go, start a new search, jump between sessions — your collected sources follow you across every project, ready to drop into your bibliography.

Stop making things up. Find real sources in seconds, verify the ones you already have, and submit with citations you can actually stand behind.

Ryne Team 💎

Ryne Chat just got a lot more powerful. After the v3.5 rebuild, we're shipping 7 new power-ups that turn the chat into a full creative workspace — presentations, spreadsheets, reports, resumes, charts, math solving, and deep research — all generated right inside the conversation.

🧰 7 New Power-Ups

The original power-ups let Ryne search the web, generate images, run code, and pull citations. Now there's a whole new category: Generators — power-ups that create polished, downloadable files from a single prompt.

📊 PowerPoint

Tell Ryne what you need and get a complete .pptx deck — not a wall of bullet points on white slides. Every presentation uses intentional slide archetypes (hero, stat highlights, timelines, comparisons, case studies) with metric cards, callout boxes, icon bullets, and proper visual hierarchy.

"Use the PowerPoint power-up to create a Series A pitch deck for an AI customer support startup"

📋 Spreadsheet

Generate formatted .xlsx files with styled headers, alternating row colors, auto-filters, frozen panes, SUM/AVERAGE formulas, conditional formatting, and embedded charts. Ryne uses xlsxwriter so the output opens clean in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers.

"@Spreadsheet monthly budget tracker with categories for housing, food, transport, and savings"

📄 PDF Report

Get editorial-quality PDF reports rendered from HTML/CSS via WeasyPrint — cover pages, section headers with accent underlines, styled tables, callout boxes, page numbers, and multi-page layouts. If WeasyPrint isn't available, it falls back to ReportLab automatically.

"@PDF-Report market analysis on EV charging infrastructure in North America"

👤 Resume

Create polished, ATS-friendly resumes in four layout variants — Modern Professional, Executive, Creative, and Academic — each tailored to different industries. Sidebar layouts, skills sections, quantified achievements, proper typography.

"@Resume senior software engineer with 6 years at Stripe and Datadog, specializing in Go and distributed systems"

📈 Chart

Generate publication-ready charts and visualizations. Ryne defaults to Plotly for crisp, well-labeled output with branded color themes, annotations, trend lines, and source footnotes. Falls back to Matplotlib if needed.

"@Chart monthly revenue growth from $1.2M to $3.1M over 2024, annotate when we crossed $2M"

🧮 Solve

Step-by-step math and science problem solving with visual output. Powered by SymPy for symbolic work (solve, integrate, differentiate, limits, and related steps) plus matplotlib for figures — with rendered solution steps you can follow.

"@Solve integrate x² · sin(x) dx"

🔬 Deep Research

Deep Research has been completely upgraded with a structured 4-phase methodology: research planning, targeted multi-query search strategy, source quality scoring, and synthesis with executive summaries, data tables, expert perspectives, and full citations. Every claim requires 2+ independent sources.

"@Deep-Research compare React vs Vue for production apps in 2026"

🎨 Unified Design System

Generated artifacts share a coherent visual language. The design system includes five curated palettes (Ocean, Ember, Forest, Slate, Royal), slide archetypes and chart colors for decks and figures, resume layout variants, and shared QA rubrics — so instructions stay consistent across generators.

The result: a pitch deck and its companion spreadsheet can look like they belong together.

✨ Redesigned Power-Ups Selector

The old dropdown is gone. The new power-ups menu is a full panel with:

• Category sidebar — Browse by Search, Create, Analyze, or Generators
• Detail view — Tap any power-up to see what it does, example prompts to try, and a one-tap enable/disable toggle
• Search — Filter across all power-ups instantly
• Responsive — Opens as a dialog on desktop, a drawer on mobile

🛠️ Under the Hood

• Smarter tool guidance — The system prompt now directs the model to use the right libraries (xlsxwriter over openpyxl for new spreadsheets, WeasyPrint over ReportLab for PDFs, Plotly over Matplotlib for charts) with proper fallback chains
• Chat cache syncing — Conversations stay in sync across tabs and sessions
• Reasoning expansion — The thinking/reasoning toggle now syncs with streaming state so it expands smoothly while the response is still generating
• Image URL consolidation — Cleaner handling of image attachments across chat messages

---

Every power-up works with @mentions — type @ in the message box, pick a power-up, describe what you want, and Ryne handles the rest. Mix and match them in a single conversation.

Ryne Team 💎

We didn't update Ryne Chat. We rewrote it. Every line, every interaction, every piece of the streaming engine — rebuilt from scratch to fix the things that frustrated you and unlock what wasn't possible before.

Here's everything that changed.

⚡ Brand-New Streaming Engine

The old chat had one job: send a message, wait for a response, hope nothing breaks. The new engine is a completely different beast.

• Stream multiple chats at once — Run lots of conversations simultaneously, all streaming in real-time. Switch between them freely. Every stream is independently managed.
• Responses that survive anything — Close your tab, lose wifi, laptop dies — it doesn't matter. When you come back, your response picks up exactly where it left off. Powered by a resumable streaming system that keeps your responses safe in the background, even if your browser isn't there to receive them.

🚀 Power-Ups — Superpowers Inside the Conversation

This is the big one. Ryne Chat is no longer just a chatbot. It's a full workspace. Power-ups are built-in capabilities that let Ryne take real actions during your conversation — search the web, generate images, run code, pull citations, and more — all without leaving the chat.

Available power-ups:

• 🔍 Google Search — Ryne pulls live results from the web and weaves them into its answer. No more "as of my last training data" disclaimers.
• 🎨 Image Generation — Describe what you want and Ryne creates it right in the conversation. Diagrams, visuals, posters — just ask.
• 💻 Code Interpreter — Ryne can actually run code. Upload a dataset, analyze trends, solve math problems with verified answers, build charts from your data.
• 📚 Citation Generator — APA, MLA, Chicago, Harvard — properly formatted citations generated instantly from real sources.
• 🧠 Deep Research (Coming Soon) — Multi-source deep dives that cross-reference information and return comprehensive, sourced breakdowns.

You're in control. Toggle each power-up on or off from the new power-ups menu. Your preferences are remembered across sessions.

💬 @Mention Any Power-Up

Type @ in the message box and a popup appears with all your available power-ups — just like mentioning someone in a group chat. Start typing to filter, select the one you want, and Ryne knows exactly what you need.

Some examples:

"Explain quantum entanglement @Google Search — use the latest research from 2026"

"I'm writing about climate change. @Citation Generator give me 5 APA citations on rising sea levels"

"@Code Interpreter here's my CSV — what are the top 3 trends in this data?"

"@GPT Image Gen create a minimalist poster for a university debate competition"

Chain them together in a single message — search the web, then cite what it found, all in one go. When Ryne uses a power-up, live cards show the input and output as it works, and you can expand or collapse them to keep your conversation clean.

✏️ Edit Your Messages

Sent a message with a typo? Want to rephrase your question? Hover over any message and hit the pencil icon. Edit it inline, and Ryne regenerates the response from that point. Your attached images and documents stay put.

🎨 Completely Redesigned Interface

Every pixel of the chat UI has been rethought — cleaner layout, smoother animations, better typography, and a proper surface hierarchy that looks great in both light and dark mode. It's faster, it's sharper, and it actually feels good to use.

🛠️ What We Fixed

• Lost responses — if your connection dropped, your response was gone forever. Now it's resumable.
• One chat at a time — you had to wait for one response to finish before starting another. Now run as many as you want.
• No tool call steps— the chat didn't show tool calls inline.
• Couldn't edit messages — sent a bad prompt? Start over. Now you just edit it.
• Fragile streaming — the old engine was brittle and would break. The new one is fault-tolerant and built to scale.

Ryne just got faster, fresher, and finally — lighter. ☀️

This is a big one. We've been cooking behind the scenes and today we're dropping four major upgrades at once. Let's get into it.

☀️ Light Mode Is Here

The most requested feature since launch. Ryne is no longer dark-mode-only — you can now switch between light and dark across the entire platform. Every single page, every tool, every modal. It follows your system preference automatically, or you can toggle it yourself from the header.

Studying in a sunny library? Light mode. Late-night grind session? Dark mode. Your call.

⚡ Way Faster

We rebuilt a lot under the hood. Everything loads faster, pages feel instant, and navigation is buttery smooth. Transitions are tighter, interactions snap into place, and there's less waiting around. Ryne just moves now.

💬 Refreshed Ryne Chat UI

Ryne Chat got a visual glow-up. Cleaner layout, better spacing, more polished overall. Same powerful AI — just a much nicer experience to use it in.

---

Go try it. Open Ryne, hit the theme toggle, click around. You'll feel the difference immediately.

We just solved the biggest problem every humanizer has ignored. 🧬

Every humanizer on the market does the same thing — takes AI text and makes it sound generically human. Good enough to fool a detector, maybe. But the real risk for students isn’t Turnitin flagging them — it’s a professor who’s read their writing all semester thinking “this doesn’t sound like you.”

That ends today.

🧬 Writing DNA

Writing DNA captures your unique writing fingerprint and bakes it into every humanization. Not a generic "human voice." Your voice.

How it works:

1. Open the DNA dialog from the humanizer toolbar
2. Paste 3-5 samples of your past writing — essays, papers, emails, anything
3. We analyze your vocabulary, sentence rhythm, transition habits, tone, paragraph structure, and even your natural imperfections
4. A writing fingerprint is generated and saved to your account
5. Every time you humanize with DNA enabled, the output sounds like you wrote it

Not "a human." You.

💡 Why This Matters

A professor who's graded your papers for months has a mental model of how you write. A humanizer that outputs generic "human-sounding" text breaks that model instantly. Writing DNA means the output already matches their expectation of your voice. No suspicion. No awkward conversations.

⚡ Quick Details

• Free for all users — no plan required
• Set it once — your DNA persists across sessions
• Toggle on/off — switch it from the humanizer toolbar or inside the DNA dialog
• Works with everything — Balanced mode, Stealth mode, all languages, all settings
• Upload files — paste text or upload PDFs, DOCX, DOC, TXT
• API support — pass writingDna as a parameter if you're using the API

---

This is the feature we've been most excited about. No other humanizer does this. Try it — open the humanizer toolbar, tap DNA, and upload a few writing samples. You'll see the difference immediately.
