Why We Created Forethought: Making Difficult Times Easier

A few years ago, a dear friend of mine faced a devastating loss. Her brother and his business partner were tragically killed in a car accident, leaving their wives to navigate not just personal finances but also a business they knew little about. This heartbreaking event sparked an idea, but it was through the support and input of my own family, friends, and my design partner that Forethought came to life.

Forethought serves a unique purpose; it's not a password manager, but it complements those services by acting as a secure vault for all the essential information your loved ones might need if something happens to you. Together, we've spent years ensuring that your data is not only easy to organize but also safe and secure.

The pandemic reminded us all of the fragility of life. Forethought is here to give you peace of mind, no matter your age or health status. Our free version is genuinely free and keeps your data on your device. The premium version offers online backup and adds an extra layer of security: data is encrypted on your device, accessible only by you and your Vault Keepers, ensuring it gets to the right people when needed.

Forethought is designed to make difficult times a little easier for those you leave behind. It's about thoughtful preparation for the future, ensuring a seamless transition to trusted individuals.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you find Forethought useful, please share it with your friends and family. We're always open to feedback to make our app even better.
