VA average disability-related claim completion, July 2026.
Proof
Proof before slogans. Pilots before invented ROI.
This is the public proof surface: educational readiness in production today, and reserved slots for independently defensible pilot outcomes. We will not fill this page with fictional case studies.
Mission conditions
VA-reported context — not VBB results
200%
increase
Growth over ten years in original claims with eight or more medical issues.
2×
volume
Individual disabilities claimed have doubled in five years.
63%
pending
Share of pending claims that are supplemental claims.
Figures as reported by VA, July 2026. These are not VBB results.
Operating measures
These are the measures a bounded pilot is designed to prove. They are not filled with invented company numbers.
Evidence First-Pass Yield™
Pilot KPI
Share of packages that can progress without avoidable evidence-development rework.
Gaps named pre-submission
Pilot KPI
Missing, disconnected, or uncorrelated evidence identified before the file becomes workload.
Human override rate
Governance KPI
How often an authorized human rejects or revises an assisted output.
Traceability
Pilot KPI
Whether an output can be followed to source evidence without a black box.
Figures marked as VA-reported or as planning models are not VetBattleBuddy operating results. Pilot outcomes are published only when independently defensible.
Pilot outcomes
Reserved until a bounded evaluation can be independently defended.
Reserved
Government pilot
90-day Evidence First-Pass Yield evaluation
Named measures, bounded scope, human override. Results appear here only when they can be independently defended.
No invented outcome. Slot fills when a bounded evaluation can be defended.
Reserved
VSO network
Intake completeness before representative review
How many files arrive with named gaps versus another round of development. Not a rating predictor.
No invented outcome. Slot fills when a bounded evaluation can be defended.
Reserved
Veteran cohort
Educational readiness before filing
Heat Map completion to accredited-representative handoff. Not a VA decision and not a disability percentage.
No invented outcome. Slot fills when a bounded evaluation can be defended.
EFPY planning board
Illustrative target bands — not published company results
Replace these bands with pilot measurements when a bounded evaluation is complete. Values are planning placeholders so operators can see the board shape. They are not Evidence First-Pass Yield operating results.
