If You Support Veterans, List Your Company — Free for Life

If your business supports veterans,

list your company for free, for life

with a basic listing in SupportOurHeroes.Directory.

That listing is a public, permanent signal that you stand beside veteran-owned businesses.

If you want to show a higher level of support, increased visibility, and deeper participation

in the mission, you can become a Trusted by Heroes Partner.

No pressure.
No obligation.

Support at the level that fits your business.

Trusted by Heroes

Real Support for Veteran Businesses. Built Into How Business Is Done.

TrustedByHeroes exists to do one thing well: support veteran-owned and service-connected businesses

in a way that is practical, visible, and sustainable.

No charity language.
No one-time gestures.
No performative patriotism.

TrustedByHeroes is operated by Mounted Rifles Management Ltd., a veteran-led organization building long-term business infrastructure

for a world that is changing fast—especially as AI governance and compliance rules tighten heading into 2026.

Support should be engineered into systems, not asked for as a favor.

What TrustedByHeroes Is

TrustedByHeroes is the trust and verification layer for businesses that choose to stand with veterans through action, not words.

At the center is SupportOurHeroes.Directory:

Free, lifetime basic listings for veteran-owned businesses

Free listings for civilian businesses that support veterans

Public, searchable proof of support

A place where customers can intentionally choose who they do business with

This is not a donation platform.

It is a working business directory designed to drive visibility, trust, and opportunity.

Veteran businesses don’t need saving.
They need access, reach, and fair ground.

Why This Matters Now

As 2026 approaches, small businesses face real pressure:

• AI transparency requirements

• Record-keeping and audit expectations

• Accountability for automated content

• Increased exposure from “shadow AI” use

Most platforms ignore this.
Most small businesses are unprepared.
Veteran businesses are often left to absorb the risk alone.

TrustedByHeroes exists to change that equation—by pairing compliance-ready tools with community support that actually works.

How the Mission Is Funded

TrustedByHeroes is sustained through a commerce-for-cause stack developed and operated by Mounted Rifles Management Ltd.

MidnightDetective

A compliance-first social media command layer built to:

• Structure posting decisions

• Maintain approval and accountability

• Preserve evergreen content safely

• Create records aligned with emerging AI regulations

Navec AI

An AI readiness and risk assessment layer that helps businesses:

• Identify where AI is already in use

• Understand exposure before it becomes liability

• Make informed, defensible decisions

BaseState Compliance

A governance layer providing:

• AI use policies and documentation

• Employee accountability tools

• Proof of reasonable care as regulations tighten

When a civilian business uses this stack, it directly enables free, lifetime access and visibility for veteran-owned businesses.

One system.
Two outcomes.
Shared responsibility.

Not Charity. Capability.

We don’t hand out favors.
We build leverage.

Veteran businesses listed through TrustedByHeroes receive:

• Free directory placement for life

• Public trust signals

• Equal access to modern digital tools

• Support that scales with regulation, not against it

Civilian businesses receive:

• Operational discipline

• Compliance readiness

• A visible way to stand with veterans through normal business activity

Everyone earns their place.
Everyone contributes.

Who This Is For

• Veteran-owned and first-responder-owned businesses

• Civilian businesses that support veterans

• Organizations preparing for 2026 AI and compliance realities

• Communities that believe service still matters after the uniform comes off

Our Commitment

TrustedByHeroes and SupportOurHeroes.Directory are operated by Mounted Rifles Management Ltd. with a clear mandate:

• Keep veteran listings free for life

• Keep supporter listings accessible

• Fund support through real commerce

• Build systems that reduce risk

• Protect the integrity of the mission

This is long-term infrastructure.
Built deliberately.
Built to last.

Take a Position

• List your company for free to show support for veterans

• Become a partner to demonstrate a higher level of commitment

• Use the stack to protect your business and fund veteran support

Support isn’t something we talk about.
It’s something we build.
