A modern reader for veterans' appeals.
VA set out to replace paper-bound case review with a browser-based reader for the documents in a veteran's appeal — what became Caseflow. People who would later found Coa were among the original builders.
Our story
From VA's appeals reader to Adjudicate.
Adjudicate isn't a new entrant relearning veterans' appeals. It's the same reader VA's appeals community started — carried forward, productized, and rebuilt over eight years.
- 2016
-
Released to the public domain.
The code was open-sourced — free for anyone to use, fork, or extend. Open by design, with no lock-in.
-
Coa carries it forward.
Coa took the open-source reader into commercial production and never stopped developing it — the only continuously-maintained line of the codebase since it was open-sourced.
- 8 yrs
Proven in production.
In daily use at Bergmann & Moore, a leading veterans law firm — 100,000+ appeals, 200+ attorneys — shaped by the people who use it every day.
- 2026
Rebuilt, AI-native.
A ground-up rewrite on a modern stack: dramatically faster to open and navigate, with AI that consolidates issues, flags relevant evidence, and generates tasks.
How we rebuilt it - Now
Offered back to the Board.
