Torch is an AI-powered assistant built for military veterans and service members transitioning to civilian life. Chat with Torch like you would a knowledgeable friend who understands military culture, transition challenges, and the path forward. Torch gives you real talk — no BS, no jargon walls, no generic advice. WHAT TORCH DOES • Career Coaching — Ask about career paths, skills translation, resume advice, interview prep, or what jobs match your military experience. Torch maps your MOS, AFSC, or rating to civilian occupations using real O*NET data. • Job Search — Torch finds jobs matched to your qualifications and scores them based on how well your skills, knowledge, and experience align. Save, compare, and track jobs you're interested in. • Benefits Guidance — Get personalized estimates for VA benefits including disability compensation, GI Bill, VA home loans, VR&E, and BAH. Torch calculates based on your specific situation and shows what information is still needed. • Credential Lookup — Moving on orders or after service? See whether your professional license works in another state. Nurses, teachers, counselors, physical therapists, social workers, cosmetologists, and real estate agents, across all 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico. Torch shows the compact or fast path, fees, and next steps from verified state-board facts, explains your federal rights as a military spouse or service member, and drafts the letter to the board. General information, not legal advice. • Professional Network — Connect with other veterans in the Torch community. Share your background, see who else is out there, and build your post-service network. • Your Profile — Torch builds a profile from your conversations: branch, MOS, rank, skills, interests, and more. Everything is transparent — you can see, edit, and delete any piece of data Torch has about you. HOW IT WORKS Just talk to Torch. There are no forms to fill out, no wizards to click through. Mention your branch and MOS in conversation, and Torch will map it to civilian careers. Ask about VA disability, and Torch will walk you through the estimate. It's all conversational. Torch uses Grok (by xAI) to power conversations. Your data is never sold, never used for ads, and never shared with advertisers. Period. BUILT FOR VETERANS, BY DESIGN Torch understands military shorthand, ranks, branch-specific terminology, and the unique challenges of transition. Whether you served 4 years or 24, whether you're planning your transition or years into civilian life, Torch meets you where you are.
