Future Operating Base turns military benefits, VA claims, and your separation timeline into plain English — so "I didn't know that was available" stops being the reason you fall through the cracks.
"I got out and had no idea what I didn't know. So I built the tool I wish someone had handed me on my way out."
The programs already exist. The gap is knowing they're there, and knowing how to use them.
FOB's Path feature meets you wherever you are in transition — the app changes what it shows you based on your actual EAS date.
Understand what's ahead before mandatory transition briefings start, so you walk in with questions instead of leaving with more of them.
The Benefits Delivery at Discharge window — one of the most time-sensitive, least-understood steps in the whole process.
GI Bill vs. VR&E, VA home loan eligibility, and healthcare enrollment — laid out side by side so you can actually compare them.
FOB doesn't stop at your last day of service — the path continues through the parts of transition nobody warns you about.
Six areas. One plain-language source, instead of six different offices.
I'm a Marine Corps veteran. When I got out, I didn't know what I'd earned, what I qualified for, or where to even start looking — and I don't think that's unusual. I think it's the default experience.
I built Future Operating Base mostly through vibe coding: fast, AI-assisted, iterative development that kept me close to the actual problem instead of buried in process. I'm not a trained engineer, and I'm not pretending to be one. I'm someone who needed this tool, so I built it.
It's free. It's staying free. And it's still very much in progress — which is exactly why your feedback matters right now, while it's still being shaped.
