About Future @I

Built by a gig worker. For everyone.

The Founder

Name: Francisco Ricardo Preciado Jr.
Title: Founder & Developer, Future @I LLC
Location: Porterville, California

“I've been working since I was 15 years old. I've been through more jobs than I can count — warehouse, retail, food service, you name it. The same thing every day. Clock in, clock out, repeat. I got tired of it.

So I went independent. For 5 years I worked as an independent contractor — Postmates, Instacart, DoorDash, GrubHub, Uber Eats, Uber, Lyft, Amazon Flex, Walmart Spark. I completed over 22,000 deliveries across all platforms combined. I know what it's like to grind 12-hour days wondering if the math will work out at the end of the month.

That's why I started Future @I. I needed a better source of income, but more than that, I wanted to build something that actually helps people. I spent a lot of my own money — money that wasn't easy to come by — to start this small app business. The goal was simple: give my family a chance at financial stability, and build tools that respect the people who use them.

I spent 2 years planning before I wrote a single line of code. Researching, learning, understanding what people actually need versus what big tech companies want to sell them. When I finally started releasing apps, I made a promise to myself: affordable pricing, real privacy, and no compromises on sovereignty.

Every Future @I app runs on YOUR device. Your data stays on YOUR phone. We don't sell it, we don't harvest it, we don't even see it. You can back it up, import it to a new phone, or let it erase when you uninstall — the decision is yours. That's not a marketing line. That's the whole point.

Truly Sovereign.”

— Francisco Ricardo Preciado Jr.

Why Sovereign?

“Big tech companies make billions by collecting your data and selling it to advertisers. They give you 'free' apps, but you pay with your privacy, your habits, your location, your conversations.

We don't do that. Future @I apps are built different:

  • All AI processing happens on your device — no cloud, no server-side processing
  • Your data never leaves your phone unless YOU choose to export it
  • No accounts required to use core features
  • No ads. No tracking. No data brokers.
  • Affordable pricing because we believe good software shouldn't cost $20/month

We're a small company. One founder, a lot of determination, and a commitment to doing things right. We may not have the budget of Google or Apple, but we have something they don't: we actually care about your privacy. Not as a feature — as a principle.”
