Software for screening and managing citations

There are various products available to help you and your review team screen and manage the results of your searches. Some of these are freely available, others require a subscription. Three popular options are outlined below:

  • Rayyan – Free systematic review software that allows for easy import of citations, duplicate removal and blind screening of search results.
  • Covidence – Subscription based product that offers a free trial (one review, maximum of two reviewers and 500 references).
  • DistillerSR – Subscription based product with artificial intelligence powered duplicate removal and exclusion decision checking, as well as templates for data extraction.

See this Systematic Review Software Comparison chart created by the Health Sciences Library at the University of Hawai'i for more systematic review software options and features.
