Field notes
The described process starts with the user signing in to VA.gov, patient portals, and insurance sites inside the app’s built-in browser; gathered records are organized in a local case folder. The site says its assistant checks records against 38 CFR Part 4 and prepares drafts for line-by-line confirmation, while the user retains the final submission step. Downloads are listed separately for Windows, Apple-silicon Macs, and Intel Macs, with checksums; the current release is labeled an early test version.
