Turn a Veteran’s Service Record Into Credit in Days, Not a Semester
LioraAI reads the Joint Services Transcript, CCAF transcript or DD-214, aligns every course and occupation to ACE recommendations, and maps those to your catalog with your rules. Your certifying officials approve a documented recommendation instead of decoding a stack of PDFs.
What is a Joint Services Transcript (JST)?
The Joint Services Transcript is an official record of military training and occupational experience for the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard. It includes American Council on Education (ACE) credit recommendations for each course and occupation.
Who it’s for
Veteran Services offices, School Certifying Officials (SCOs), registrars and military-friendly admissions teams. It covers Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard records through the JST, and Air Force and Space Force records through the Community College of the Air Force (CCAF) transcript.
Institution-specific figures were reported by those institutions. Results vary with your current process, transcript volume and SIS configuration; we model your own numbers in the demo.

Military credit evaluations sitting in a manual queue for weeks
