Military transition planning

A blank, faithful preview of the Transition Budget Planner. Your own assumptions stay in your workbook.

The comparison

Put every part of the offer on the same page.

Military total compensation

Base pay, BAH, BAS, other tax-advantaged allowances, healthcare assumptions, and your own notes.

Civilian offer scenarios

Good, better, and best offer scenarios with adjustable taxes, benefits, and transition costs.

Why Rally Point

Built by someone who's lived the transition.

After 15 years of service, I started planning my own exit and couldn't find a plain tool that showed what a civilian offer actually had to replace: BAH, BAS, tax-advantaged pay, healthcare, and the rest. So I built one. Rally Point is that spreadsheet, made for service members by a service member.

One-time purchase. No subscription.

Choose the right starting point.

A practical purchase safeguard: if a delivered file is defective or confirmed access fails, contact us so we can review the issue. We do not promise outcomes or automatic refunds for digital tools.

Veterans and military spouses may request a discount review before purchase. Checkout does not automatically redeem discount codes, so use the request form below; submitting a request does not guarantee approval or reserve launch pricing.

Bundle clarity

Three tools for three parts of the plan.

The Transition Bundle adds a PCS Move Cost Tracker for deposits, travel, temporary lodging, reimbursements, and your move assumptions—plus a Separation Checklist Tracker for your personal timeline, documents, appointments, and transition tasks.

At $35, the bundle is $16 more than the $19 planner because it adds two distinct execution tools. Compared with $48 in standalone value, you save $13—about 27%.
