A Cape Coral technology company has quietly built something the United States government has never managed to do — put every veteran's service record in one permanent, searchable, surveillance-free platform available to anyone, anywhere, for free.
NeuraWeb Global Inc., headquartered at 877 27th Lane in Cape Coral, launched salute.nw earlier this year. The platform currently honors 14,406,352 veterans drawn from government archives including Arlington National Cemetery records, the Beneficiary Identification and Records Locator System (BIRLS), the Defense Casualty Analysis System (DCAS), and the Congressional Medal of Honor Society. Every record is permanent, searchable, and linked to a unique digital identity that the veteran — or their heirs — can claim and control forever.
The platform's founder, S. Vincent Anthony, describes the mission in straightforward terms: every person who ever wore a uniform deserves a permanent place in the record. Not a database entry that gets deleted when a company pivots. Not a profile on a social network that sells their data. A permanent digital dog tag — theirs for 150 years, transferable to their children and grandchildren when they are gone.
"The salute is the universal military gesture," Anthony said. "It crosses every language barrier, every branch, every nation, every era. That's what this platform is — a salute to every veteran who ever served, rendered permanently."
What sets salute.nw apart from existing platforms like Ancestry, FindAGrave, or the VA's own systems is its foundational architecture. There is no Google Analytics running in the background. No Facebook tracking pixel. No data brokers. No advertising. The veteran's record is not a product to be monetized — it is a permanent identity that belongs to the veteran and their family.
The platform already documents 3,374 Medal of Honor recipients with portraits and full citations, spans 29 documented conflicts from the Revolutionary War through the present day, and catalogs 82 military decorations. A Roll of Honor search returns results in under 100 milliseconds across 14 million records — faster than most commercial search engines.
The scope is deliberately global. While US records form the foundation, salute.nw is architected from day one to honor veterans from every nation — British Royal Marines, Canadian Forces, the IDF, Australian Defence Force, and beyond. The platform's guiding principle is simple: if you wore a uniform and served, you belong here.
Living veterans can claim their record and build it out with service documents, photographs, awards, and personal memories — all stored through NeuraWeb's own secure infrastructure, with no third-party access. When a veteran passes, the record transitions seamlessly to a memorial profile, with family members designated in advance as record stewards.
For families researching a grandfather's World War II service or a grandmother's role in the military, the platform offers something no government archive currently provides — a single place where the full service story lives, permanently, and is presented with the dignity it deserves.
salute.nw is accessible now at neuraweb.io/salute.nw and is free to use with no account required to browse the Roll of Honor.
