DashTen is built for service members preparing to leave active duty — a focused set of tools to plan, decide, and land. Built by a veteran.
Most service members get five days of TAP class and a handshake. DashTen gives you the next 365.
DashTen organizes the scattered checklists and half-finished spreadsheets you've been collecting into one focused app. A personalized roadmap adapts to your separation date, branch, and goals.
Whether you're four years out or four months, the app meets you where you are.
Your separation date, your branch, your goals. The roadmap adapts and shows what to do this week, this month, this quarter.
Hundreds of military career codes mapped to civilian language across all six branches, with AI assistance for translating accomplishments.
Project your TSP at separation. Model promotion paths. See your full Blended Retirement System picture.
The essential documents you'll need before separation, with a checklist of what to gather and where to find it.
Compare two job offers, two cities, or two career paths side by side using weighted criteria you control.
Mindset shifts, networking prompts, and weekly check-ins to keep momentum during the longest part of the journey.
