The Best BibTeX Generator Online — Powered by CiteDrive

Creating clean, correct BibTeX entries can be a hassle — especially when you’re juggling citations across papers, tools, or teams. That’s where CiteDrive, a powerful and free online BibTeX generator, comes in. Whether you’re writing in LaTeX, Quarto, or R Markdown, CiteDrive simplifies how you manage and generate BibTeX and BibLaTeX entries — so you can focus on your research, not your references.

Why Use an Online BibTeX Generator?

If you’ve ever typed a BibTeX entry by hand, you know how easy it is to miss a comma, mess up a field, or forget the correct format for a new type of source. With a BibTeX generator, you can:

  • Generate BibTeX or BibLaTeX entries instantly from DOIs, ISBNs, or web pages
  • Avoid syntax errors and formatting issues
  • Ensure consistency across your bibliography
  • Save time and collaborate with others more effectively

CiteDrive goes beyond the basics by offering a truly integrated and modern web-based experience — designed for researchers, writers, and academic teams.
