| Accreditation and filing | Not listed in VA's accreditation search. | A tool that gets your claim moving faster. You file, or the accredited representative you choose files for you, free, and you share the packet with them by a link you control. Not accredited ourselves, and never in contact with VA. |

Where they differ
Price over a year. Claim Raven Standard is $229.99 a year and Plus $359.99, before the introductory offer. YourVABenefits Pro is $14.95 for the year. Record reading is on Claim Raven's Plus tier or in the $500 Pathfinder package; on YourVABenefits it is what the $14.95 buys.
One C-file review versus reading the whole file. Pathfinder includes one C-file review. YourVABenefits reads every page of the claims file you add, cites each finding to its page, and updates every condition when a new record arrives, for the length of the year.
Reviews of other companies. Claim Raven publishes review articles about VeteranAI, VA Claims Insider, Trajector and others. This site does the same on these pages, with the sources shown.
