Why it’s different

Most PCS tools hand you a checklist. We hand you a number.

$1,000–5,000+

left unclaimed on a typical move

People miss DLA windows, under-file PPM, and skip per diem for dependents. The playbook surfaces every dollar tied to your orders.

2026 JTR

rates, not last year’s

DLA, MALT, per diem, TLE caps and weight allowances are kept current, and every figure tells you to confirm with Finance.

What’s inside

Everything the move actually requires.

01

Real dollar entitlements

DLA, MALT, per diem, TLE/TLA, PPM. All computed from current 2026 JTR rates for your exact rank and dependents. Not a range. A number.

02

Interactive checklist

60+ tasks, grouped into phases from 90 days out to post-arrival, each with the tip nobody tells you. Check them off as you go.

03

Timeline keyed to your report date

HHG pack, weigh-ins, DPS/TMO windows, TLE caps. Dated backward from the day you have to sign in.

04

Destination intel

On-post vs off-post, neighborhoods, schools, BAH reality. For your gaining base, not a generic guide.

05

Built for both of you

One link for the household: the spouse view runs the calendar, the member view runs the paperwork.

06

OCONUS-ready

Passports, command sponsorship, pets, POV shipment, TLA. The overseas module appears the moment your orders go OCONUS.

Who it’s for

Built for the person who actually runs the move.

For the spouse

You’re already running the show.

The binder, the housing-office calls, the moving company you’ve never met. The playbook pulls every task and entitlement for your specific move into one place: what to do, when, what the rules actually say, and where the paperwork lives. Your view runs on the household calendar.

For the service member

Get the paperwork right the first time.

Your job already takes the hours you have. The playbook walks you through what personnel, finance, and the gaining unit need from you (DPS, BAH change, dependents, orders endorsements), so nothing bounces back two days before your report date.

How it works

Four steps. Two minutes to start.

01

Tell us about your orders

About two minutes. Branch, rank, dependents, current and gaining base, report date. Phone-friendly.

Your entitlement headline and your first critical steps, free, before you pay a cent. Proof the thing is good.

Why I built it

R

Roger

Founder · has PCS’d his own family more than once

I built the tool I wish I’d had.

Every move was the same. Nobody could tell me in one place what I was owed, what I had to file, and by when. I’d find out about an entitlement after the window to claim it had already closed.

So I built PCS Copilot, every task and every dollar tied to your exact orders, in the order you actually need to do them. If it doesn’t help your move, you get your money back.

Simple pricing

Free preview, then

$24

One-time. No subscription. Less than ten minutes of your BAH, and it replaces eight hours of reading the JTR yourself.

Frequently asked

Questions people actually ask.

Is this just a generic checklist?

+

No. Every section is generated from your specific orders: branch, rank, dependents, CONUS or OCONUS, PPM or not. Two different moves produce two different playbooks, with different dollar figures.

Do I have to pay before I see anything?

+

No. You get a free personalized preview, your entitlement headline and first steps, before you decide. The $24 unlock is for the full playbook, interactive checklist, and timeline.

Are the dollar amounts real?

+

They’re computed from the current 2026 JTR rate tables for your rank and dependent status, real estimates, not hand-waving. Every figure carries a “verify with Finance” note, because rates move and your finance office has the final say.

Can both of us use the same playbook?

+

Yes. One link for your household. The spouse view organizes around the calendar; the service-member view organizes around the paperwork.

What’s the refund process?

+

Email roger@pcscopilot.com within 24 hours for a full refund, no questions asked. After that, email me anyway and I’ll handle it case by case.
