VA Benefits Navigator was born from two veterans determined to solve a frustrating challenge: navigating complex VA disability claims.

Dewayne Kimble, after serving in the US Army, worked as a VA Rating Specialist, gaining insight into what makes VA claims successful. Following, he founded KMD89 VA Claims Consulting and built a highly successful YouTube channel with 130,000+ subscribers, where he helps thousands get educated and maximize their VA compensation benefits.

Don Fried, a Marine Corps veteran and marketing strategist, saw potential to scale Dewayne's expertise through technology. Together, they have joined an AI accelerator to develop VA Benefits Navigator—making this valuable insider knowledge accessible to all veterans.

Our mission: Leave No Vet Behind. We believe every veteran deserves full VA compensation benefits without fighting paperwork battles. The VA claims process shouldn't require expensive consultants.

VA Benefits Navigator provides:

• AI-Powered Claims Guide using language VA raters respond to
• Personal Statement Builder with proven templates
• Evidence Checklists for your conditions
• VA Claim Educational Packets tailored to your claim
• Resources based on Dewayne's expertise as a former VA rater

What sets us apart:

Founded by a Former VA Rater: Dewayne's experience making claim decisions provides unique insights.

Proven Track Record: This approach has already helped thousands through Dewayne's practice and YouTube.
