I'm about a week into the launch for my first site. I went into this project with no expectations with the internal goal saying "If I can help just one person that's a win." The site itself, in its final state will show veterans every single benefit they're eligible for based on a few questions such as location, branch etc, totally free with no sign up or account needed.

Starting out was fairly easy, there's so many federal benefits that most veterans qualify for but as I go on its been super interesting finding new benefits and state specific programs to add in. Currently at 235 added benefits I manually verify every one so working on a solution to streamline that while maintaining accuracy has been great.

I hit my first goal that I imagined would happen after 3 months within 1 week and have had great feedback all round. My biggest challenge as I'm starting to see, is getting eyes on this thing, I've already had multiple military bases respond to my cold outreach but I'm beginning to think a full fledged marketing campaign may be necessary here.

Wanted to share my journey here as I truly think this is a great idea and it seems to have helped a ton of people already!

I posted my site in the "internetisbeautiful" subreddit and have almost 60k views with tons of vets reaching out mentioning how helpful it has been so far.

I built this site that in its final form will show a veteran every single possible benefit they're eligible for based on a few questions. Forever free, no account required, no sign up, just instant results to benefits they've already earned. I add every benefit manually and am currently working on a solution to not only remain as accurate as possible on the benefits but also to consistently add additional benefits, and will be including everything from educational grants to state specific license plates, to local restaurant military discounts.

Check it out, I have a built in suggestion box for any recommendations/ideas/features, just an extra resource for our service members!
