X4 · Foresight

Turn your X4: Foundations save into an empire intelligence dashboard

Upload one or moresave files and get a comprehensive view of your entire empire — economic trends,fleet readiness, station economy, the sector map, crew, and incoming Xenon threats. Free, no install, runs entirely in your browser.

🔒 Private by design: your save is scanned locally in your browser — it is never uploaded anywhere.

What it shows you

One scan, the whole picture of your empire.

Empire Snapshot

A top-level overview of your holdings, pilot, and net worth the moment a save loads.

Naval & Fleet

Every ship by class and role, hull designs, equipment and loadouts — see fleet readiness at a glance.

$Station Economy

Production, cashflow and trade — what your stations are making, moving, and earning.

Universe & Sectors

An interactive sector map of where your assets sit and what's around them.

Threat Alerts

Hostile NPC ships in your station sectors — including Xenon fleets — surfaced as actionable alerts.

JSON Exports

Export the resolved data as JSON to plug into spreadsheets or your own tooling.

How it works

Three steps, about a minute.

  1. Find your save. X4: Foundations stores saves as .xml.gz files in your Egosoft documents folder.
  2. Load it into the dashboard. Open the tool and pick the file — the scanner runs in your browser (Python via Pyodide in a Web Worker).
  3. Read your empire. Browse the Overview, Naval, Universe and Alerts tabs, or export the data as JSON.

FAQ

Is it free?
Yes — completely free and open source.
Do you upload my save file?
No. The save is read and processed entirely inside your browser; nothing is sent to any server.
Does this modify or edit my save?
No. X4 Foresight is read-only — it scans and visualizes your save, it never writes to it. Your game files are untouched.
What save files does it support?
Standard X4: Foundations save files (the .xml.gz saves the game produces).
Do I need to install anything?
No install — it runs in any modern desktop browser. There is also a desktop (Python) build in the repository if you prefer to run it locally.
