Example conversation with Frank:
What you get
Frank does the slow part for you: finding the right panels, journals, awards and press, preparing the applications you approve, and saving every win as proof. Your record keeps growing while you do your real job.
What it actually does
Building a record takes hours you may not have. Here is the work Frank does for you.
Judging panels, peer review (Pro and up), awards, memberships, journals and calls for speakers. They are sorted by the gap they fill in your record, not by deadline, so your time goes where it counts. Frank indexes more than 3,200 every month.
Frank prepares and sends each application you approve. It tracks every result and shows your win rate, so you can see if the matches are working.
The people writing your letters, your exhibits, drafts, deadlines and attorney messages are all in one place. On Pro and Concierge, your evidence is saved as exhibits ready for your attorney from day one.
How it works
You stay in control at every step. Frank finds the opportunities, helps with the forms and saves your proof.
01
Frank reads your resume and documents. For each criterion, you see how strong your evidence is. EB-2 NIW has no criteria list, so for NIW you see EB-2 eligibility and the three parts of the national interest test instead. Weak areas are named clearly, so you know what to work on first. This is information to help you plan, not a legal opinion.
Each criterion (or, for NIW, each part of the test) gets a strength score. When you add new evidence, the score goes up. On paid plans, a weekly email tells you what to work on next, so you never have to guess.
Frank shows you opportunities, starting with the ones that help your weakest areas. Frank prepares and sends the applications you approve. When you win one, Frank saves the proof right away. When you are ready, you give your attorney an organized record.
How the work is split
Frank does not give legal advice. It does not decide if you qualify, and it does not predict an outcome. It finds opportunities and organizes your evidence. Every petition is drafted, reviewed and filed by licensed attorneys at an independent partner firm. Read the disclosure.
Five stages
Frank works on the first two stages: the years before a petition is worth writing. From stage three, licensed attorneys at an independent partner firm take over. Your record stays on the same platform the whole way, so you do not have to start over at each stage.

Who it’s for
Good evidence looks different in every field. Here is what Frank looks for in yours. Only real evidence that can be checked counts.
Researchers and scientistsPeer reviews you have completed, not just invitations. Papers in professional journals or recognized conference proceedings. Awards with national or international recognition. Citations well above your field’s average can help show an original contribution of major significance.
EngineersPapers in recognized conference proceedings. Hackathons or technical competitions where you actually judged entries. Technical press about you and your work. Patents others license or use. For O-1A, open-source code with proof of significant impact.
FoundersStartup competition and accelerator panels where you scored entries. Press about you, not only your company. Nationally or internationally recognized industry awards given to you, not your company. If your startup has a distinguished reputation, founding it can help show you had a leading role.
CliniciansClinical studies in peer-reviewed journals. Peer reviews you have completed for medical journals. Specialty awards with national or international recognition. For the O-1A and EB-1A membership criterion, a society fellow level may count if recognized national or international experts give it for outstanding achievement. A training fellowship, a license or a membership you pay for does not count there. For EB-2 NIW, a license and professional memberships can help show exceptional ability.
Artists and creators (O-1B)Lead roles in productions or events with a distinguished reputation, both past and upcoming. Solo shows at well-known events. Reviews in major press. For O-1B, a nomination for a major national award, such as a Grammy, can count.

What we don’t sell
Frank finds real opportunities and helps you apply for them. We do not sell you credentials. We don’t sell awards. We don’t buy you a seat on a panel. We don’t arrange memberships you get just by paying, or journals that accept your paper because you paid. We won’t build a record that isn’t really yours.
This protects you, not just us. USCIS looks closely at evidence. For the O-1A and EB-1 membership criteria, a membership you get just by paying a fee does not count. Paid promotional content generally does not count as press about you. A petition built on fake or bought evidence can be denied. A finding of fraud or misrepresentation can be held against you in every future immigration filing.
Everything Frank charges for is work: matching, drafting help, reaching out to editors and organizers, and organizing your evidence. None of it is evidence for sale.
FAQ
No. Frank is software. It does not give legal advice, decide if you qualify or predict an outcome. Licensed attorneys at an independent partner firm do all legal work, under a separate agreement. Green Card Guide is not a law firm.
Frank covers O-1A, O-1B, EB-1A, EB-1B and EB-2 NIW. These are the routes where your own record of achievement matters most. Frank does not cover other visa types.
It depends on your record today. Some people are ready in about a year. Some take three years. No one can promise you a date. Frank shows your scores going up, so you can see progress. Before anything is filed, a partner-firm attorney reviews your record and tells you if they think it is ready. Only USCIS decides if you qualify.
No. Upload your resume and see where you stand. No account and no card are needed.
Yes. Monthly plans are billed every month, and you can cancel any time. 6-month and 12-month plans are billed once, up front.
No. Frank only applies for opportunities you approve. Nothing goes out in your name until you say yes.
