Sample, from made-up recordsThree steps
You do three things. AVA does the reading and the drafting in between.
Step 1
Add your records
Upload your VA and military records as PDF, Word, text, JPG or PNG files. Hundreds of pages at once. Not sure what to upload? Start with your DD-214 and any VA letters.
Step 2
Check what AVA found
AVA reads every page and lists the conditions it found, with the page it found each one on. It shows what is still missing. You say which ones to claim.
Step 3
Review, sign and file
AVA drafts your statements and pre-fills your VA forms for you to check. You read each one, sign where marked, and file it yourself on VA.gov or with a free VSO.
Six things AVA does from your own record
Each one shows up inside the app as you work, with the page it came from.
Every sentence points at a page
Every sentence AVA drafts points at a page in your own record. Open the page, or mark the line wrong with one tap.
Nine VA forms, pre-filled for you to check
Eight named VA forms plus the claim form, pre-filled with facts from your records. You check every field, and each form shows its plain name beside its number. The employer form is linked for you to hand over.
- VA Form 21-526EZ (disability claim form)
- VA Form 21-0966 (intent to file)
- VA Form 20-0995 (Supplemental Claim)
- VA Form 20-0996 (Higher-Level Review)
- VA Form 10182 (Board Appeal)
- VA Form 21-8940 (unemployability)
- VA Form 21-4192 (employer statement for an unemployability claim): your employer fills this one. AVA gives you the link.
- VA Form 21-2680 (aid and attendance)
- VA Form 21-10210 (lay or witness statement)
- VA Form 21-4142a (release of information)
Claim exam prep from your own record
If VA schedules a claim exam (a C&P exam), AVA writes an exam prep guide from your own record. It says what the exam is, what to bring, and the questions an examiner may ask. You download it with your papers at step 5.
Secondary conditions, found in your records
Some conditions are caused or made worse by another one. AVA finds those links in your own records, so you can decide whether to claim them as secondary.
Conditions VA presumes are tied to service
VA presumes some conditions are tied to service in certain places and years. AVA matches where and when you served against those lists, and names the list when your record matches.
Your decision letter, checked against your file
Already have a VA decision letter? Upload it with your VA file. AVA reads what VA granted and denied, then looks through your file for conditions and evidence the decision did not address.
AVA shows what it found. Only VA decides. See how
- No subscription.
- Nothing taken from your VA benefits.

Already have a VA decision letter?
Upload it with your VA file. AVA reads what VA granted and denied, then looks through your file for conditions and evidence the decision did not address.
For each condition, AVA shows the letter's own sentence, then a plain reading of it. Then it shows your three choices as equals, in VA's words. AVA shows what it found. Only VA decides.
One payment, for life
$79 one-time fee to use the tool. No monthly fee. Nothing taken from your VA benefits.
Complete access
Your conditions can change. When a rated service-connected condition gets worse, you can come back and prepare a claim for increase with the same records and the new ones. When VA denied a condition and you have new and relevant evidence, you can prepare a Supplemental Claim (VA Form 20-0995). Same account, no new fee.
