Episode 389 - Anthony Rivera

Anthony Rivera is the CEO and Founder of Vetavize Inc., a highly decorated former Navy SEAL renowned for his exceptional ability to tackle complex challenges. With over 11 years of service, including multiple combat deployments, he earned the prestigious designation of Master Training Specialist, establishing him as an expert in Navy medicine and healthcare curriculum. Recognized as the 2016 “Sailor of the Year" by the Chief of Naval Operations office, Anthony's leadership and impact set him apart among over 400 SEAL candidates at the Naval Special Warfare Training Command. Motivated by his personal experience, Anthony established a consultancy to assist veterans in obtaining the disability ratings they deserved, personally aiding over 7,000 veterans. In 2024, he assembled a specialized team of experts in product design, AI, and data science to build what would become the Vetavize platform. In January 2025, the company launched its first automated solution—featuring a virtual advisor that streamlines the VA claims process, supported by a U.S. patent filing for its proprietary use of automation. The platform is now scaling to onboard thousands of veterans, aligning their critical needs with mission-focused sponsors and veteran organizations across the country. His long-term vision positions Vetavize as the gold standard for post-military life, connecting veterans to the benefits, resources, and support they’ve earned.
