2. Elevator Pitch
For students that write essays
Who are dissatisfied with easyBib’s ads and poor functionality
Our product is a Chrome extension
That provides easy management of sources, and bibliography exportation
Unlike easyBib’s website interface
Out product has no ads, runs directly on a source’s webpage, and copies the
bibliography to your clipboard
4. Quotes
● “I wasn’t sure what to put for many of the labels,what is
institution?”
● “Most of my papers are in APA,not MLA”
● “If this had autofill then I would use it over EasyBib,but I still
like eNotate just to keep track of my sources”
5. Shortcomings and Solutions
Shortcoming Solution
Can’t choose between MLA, APA, etc. Specify citation style when creating project
Filling out the citation form from scratch is
annoying
Web-scraping feature to pre-populate the
citation form
URL as source placeholder is confusing Use article title instead of URL
The source labels are confusing, users
don’t know what to input
User-friendly labels and add a description
when the user mouses over a label
