Veterans use our tools to create personal statements, nexus letters, layman statements, manage medical documents, and access AI-powered educational resources about the claims process.

VeteranAI is designed for US military veterans who are filing or have filed VA disability claims. We also support family members and friends who want to help veterans by providing layman statements. Anyone can use VeteranAI, but all documents generated assume the primary user is the veteran.

Veterans use VeteranAI to streamline the claim preparation process by analyzing their C-File, extracting medical conditions, and organizing documentation that would otherwise take weeks to compile manually.

Yes, VeteranAI is a legitimate, veteran-owned company. Over 30,000 veterans have used our self-service tools for their VA disability claims since 2023, and we have a 4.8/5 rating from users. Our AI tools are designed for veterans to independently organize evidence and generate their own documentation—we don't make promises we can't keep or charge hidden fees. Unlike some vet claims services, we're transparent about what our AI can and cannot do, and we always recommend working with a free VSO for personalized guidance.

Look for these signs of a legitimate veteran claims AI service: transparent pricing with no hidden fees, clear explanation of what the AI does and doesn't do, veteran ownership or strong veteran community involvement, positive reviews from real veterans, secure data handling practices, and recommendations to work with VSOs for personalized advice. Be wary of services that guarantee claim approval or promise specific rating increases—no AI tool can guarantee VA decisions.

Our AI assistant, Six, is trained specifically on VA disability claim processes.

Six is an informational tool, not a claims advisor—for personalized guidance, we recommend working with a free VSO.

Our Nexus Letters rely on journal articles and medical evidence to establish a connection between conditions and military service. If our AI cannot find sufficient evidence, it may not generate a letter. This is to ensure we only provide accurate, evidence-based information.

During your C&P exam, avoid minimizing your symptoms or saying things like 'I'm fine' or 'it's not that bad' when describing your worst days. Don't exaggerate either—be honest and specific. Avoid saying your condition doesn't affect your work or daily life if it does. Don't compare yourself to others ('other veterans have it worse'). Be prepared to describe your worst days, not your best days. VeteranAI helps you document your symptoms accurately before your exam so you can clearly communicate the true impact of your conditions.

Mental health claims like PTSD (without combat documentation), fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, and conditions requiring a nexus to service can be challenging. Claims for conditions that developed years after service or secondary conditions often face more scrutiny. The key to difficult claims is strong documentation—medical evidence, nexus letters, buddy statements, and detailed personal statements. Veterans use VeteranAI to independently build comprehensive evidence packages for even the most challenging claims.

The time varies depending on your specific situation, but most veterans can complete their initial documentation within a few hours using our guided process.
