Citavi Reference Management Software

Citavi is a comprehensive reference management and knowledge organization software developed by Swiss Academic Software GmbH, based in Wädenswil, Switzerland. It is designed to assist researchers in managing references, organizing knowledge, and planning tasks, thereby streamlining the research and writing process. In February 2021, Swiss Academic Software was acquired by QSR International Pty Ltd, an Australian company renowned for its qualitative data analysis software, NVivo. This acquisition allowed Citavi to reach a broader global audience and benefit from QSR International's extensive resources. In 2022, QSR International, along with partners Palisade and Addinsoft, established Lumivero, a new data analytics software platform, to further enhance their research and data analysis capabilities. Despite these changes, Citavi continues to be developed and supported by its original team in Switzerland, maintaining its commitment to providing high-quality reference management solutions to researchers worldwide.
