FFG Remote Viewing Standard

Future Forecasting Group is a civilian remote viewing company that has been doing this work for nearly nine years. The International Remote Viewing Association (IRVA), the field's international association, named us "the most successful and most published remote viewing company in the world." 

IRVA Aperture Podcast, Episode 001, hosted by Ryan Kick

Our team has completed more than 800 remote-viewing sessions. Our viewers bring more than 100 years of combined experience to the work. More than 350 FFG predictions have come true so far, and we are still adding to the list.


Who We Are and What We Do 

We pioneered this work. FFG was founded by remote viewers Dick Allgire and Daz Smith. They were the first to develop remote viewing as a tool for predicting major news events. They also carried the forecasting idea behind Russell Targ's 1982 silver futures predictions into cryptocurrency. 

We use remote viewing the way the military used it: blind, documented and aimed at a specific question. We apply it to major news events, cryptocurrency and market questions, and other research topics. Direct observation and conventional research can't give a complete answer to these. 

The information goes to our members, so they can see it and decide what it means. 

The Standard Behind the Record 

That record is built on a working standard. 

Blind targets. Documented sessions. Skilled analysis. Useful information. Consistent results. This is the standard for remote-viewing work done and published under the FFG name. We set the bar high on purpose. Most people who ask for FFG-level work are really asking for a very high bar. 

  • Blind targets. Viewers do not know the target while they work. Target information is kept completely separate from the viewer. We do not run sessions where the viewer knows the target. 
  • Documented sessions. Every session is recorded before the outcome is known, so no one can claim afterward that they saw it coming. 
  • Skilled analysis. The team reviews the work together and compiles the data. 
  • Useful information. The test is whether the information helps answer a real question. 
  • Consistent results. One good session proves little. We look for results that hold across repeated assignments. 

What Makes an FFG-level Remote Viewer 

At FFG, you are a remote viewer when you solve problems consistently. An FFG-level viewer provides information that helps solve problems, and does so again and again. The value of the work is not measured by how interesting a session felt, how confident the viewer sounded, or how impressive one result looked. It is measured by the information the viewer provides and whether it proves useful across repeated assignments. 

Viewers are not judged during the session, and not by what they expected. They are judged afterward on the consistency and accuracy of the information they give. To be considered for FFG-level recognition, a candidate must have completed at least 1,000 documented blind sessions and the required HRVG or Flow methodology training. 

Reaching 1,000 sessions opens the door to portfolio review. It does not guarantee selection. One strong session does not establish professional capability, and a high session count without useful information does not either. We look for consistent target contact, clear and detailed reporting, disciplined records, and information that analysts can use. 

The FFG Gold Standard: What We Call Good Work 

  • We keep the viewer blind. The viewer does not know the target. Target information stays completely separate from the viewer. 
  • We don't tell you what the data means. The data is open to interpretation. We compile it and give our analysis, but you can look at the data yourself and reach your own conclusions. 
  • We record before we know. Sessions are documented before the outcome is known, then published so others can inspect them. 

What does not qualify as professional-grade remote viewing at FFG: 

  • Sessions where the viewer knows the target 
  • Results shown only when they were right 
  • Confidence or experience offered in place of documented results 
  • Claims that can't be traced back to a recorded session 

The Record Behind the Standard 

Here are three examples: 

These examples belong to a broader record of more than 350 predictions that have come true so far. We are still adding to it.

The Longest-Running Public Project 

Every month, FFG's team publishes its viewing of the coming month's top news stories before they happen. The sessions are put out in the open, with no safety net, and we then compare them with what actually occurred. Each cycle extends the project further. We use remote viewing to look at the future, and we do it publicly. 

Inside the Archive 

FFG has published well over 900 sessions under double-blind protocol, which is a large body of documented data. We use AI to study the archive. Every session holds good data, some bad data and a gray area of contamination. Reviewing that archive is how we learn to tell them apart. 

What Others Say About Our Work 

Our voices say it one way. Outside voices say it better. 

  • IRVA. The association's official Aperture Podcast, hosted by Ryan Kick, called FFG the most successful and most published remote viewing company in the world. The same episode described our founders as the first to develop remote viewing as a precognitive tool for predicting major news events, and as pioneers in applying it to cryptocurrency. 
  • Clif High (ALTA reports). He uses FFG as a source for confirmation. In his own words: "This level of output is why I ONLY go to FFG... when I need CONFIRMATION of the strange stuff in my ALTA reports." [Clif High on X] 
  • Sarah Westall. She has featured FFG on her show: What Remote Viewers See Coming: Crypto & Global Events. Her announcement called our process one that predicts the future "with incredible accuracy." [Post on X] 
  • The Arlington Institute. In the IRVA interview, Daz Smith said John Petersen of the Arlington Institute told him the institute follows FFG's work, and quoted back a project from two years earlier. 

Because of this standard, institutions, governments, high-net-worth individuals, think tanks and corporations seek out FFG's work. 

This is the Standard. This is What We Hold To.
