Dimensions is an abstract and citation database launched ca. 2010. It covers nearly 106 million publications with over 1.2 billion citations, which are openly accessible at app.dimensons.ai.
Several studies published in 2021 compared Dimensions.ai with its subscription-based commercial competitors, and unanimously found that Dimensions.io provides broader temporal and publication source coverage than Scopus and Web of Science in most subject areas, and closer to the coverage of free aggregation databases, such as Lens and Google Scholar.
