The show page repeated the same data multiple times across surfaces
that should each say one thing once. Per-screen counts before this
commit:
- Account % distribution: 4 places (distribution bar + dot-legend
strip + 5-bar weight pill + % column)
- Current balance: 3 places (ring, funding heading total, ring
"of $X" subline)
- Target amount: 3 places (header, ring subline, catch-up body)
- Target date: 3 places (header, catch-up body, chart axis)
- Pace: 2 places (catch-up body, projection subtitle)
- ".00" cents: every monetary string
This pass:
- Funding widget drops the dot-legend strip (color/name/% triplet
redundant with the distribution bar's color + the per-row avatar
color) and the 5-bar weight pill (rendered as "1-of-5 sliver" for
low-weight accounts — read as a glitch; the % number next to it
covered the same fact). Row grid shrinks from 5 to 4 columns.
- Funding section heading drops `· $187,031` — the ring card
already carries the total balance.
- Catch-up alert reframes:
Title was "Save $26,621/mo to stay on track" (the *full* required
rate, with the misleading "stay on track" while the pill says
"Behind"). Now "Save $20,002/mo more to catch up" using
`catch_up_delta_money` — the user's actual delta over current
pace.
Body collapsed from two with-date / no-date variants to a single
"Current pace $X/mo · required $Y/mo to hit your target." Drops
the target date duplication since the header already says it.
Pledge CTA pre-fills with the *delta*, not the full required —
so accepting it once funds the gap instead of stacking the full
required rate on top of existing pace.
Secondary link "Or adjust your target" → "Adjust target instead"
(less defeatist framing).
- Projection chart subtitle "At $X/mo you'll miss your target date."
drops the pace duplication (catch-up above already states pace).
New: "Falling short at current pace." Diagnostic only.
- All money on the show page uses `format(precision: 0)`. The ".00"
cents added no information at goal-tracking scale.
- Header `Record pledge` demotes to `outline` variant when status is
`:behind` — the catch-up alert below owns the primary action.
One primary action per surface.
Also adjacent fixes:
- Funding widget keys avatar / distribution color off `account.id`,
not `account.name`. Renaming an account no longer recolors it
retroactively; two accounts with name-hash collisions no longer
share a color (Ruby idiom audit finding).
- `Goals::StatusPillComponent`: add `:completed` variant with
`circle-check-big` icon. `Goal#display_status` now returns
`:completed` when `goal.completed?` so a manually-completed
goal (e.g. user stopped at 80%) reads "Completed" rather than
falling through to `:on_track`/`:behind` and lying on the index.
Locale: drop `body_with_date` (folded into `body`),
`projection.behind` no longer carries interpolation args (caller
doesn't pass them either), `projection.no_pace` plain-language
rewrite ("inflow" → "deposits"), add `status.completed: "Completed"`.

Sure: The personal finance app for everyone
Get involved: Discord • Website • Issues
Important
This repository is a community fork of the now-abandoned Maybe Finance project.
Learn more in their final release doc.
Backstory
The Maybe Finance (archived/abandoned repo) team spent most of 2021–2022 building a full-featured personal finance and wealth management app. It even included an “Ask an Advisor” feature that connected users with a real CFP/CFA — all included with your subscription.
The business end of things didn't work out, and so they stopped developing the app in mid-2023.
After spending nearly $1 million on development (employees, contractors, data providers, infra, etc.), the team open-sourced the app. Their goal was to let users self-host it for free — and eventually launch a hosted version for a small fee.
They actually did launch that hosted version … briefly.
That also didn’t work out — at least not as a sustainable B2C business — so now here we are: hosting a community-maintained fork to keep the codebase alive and see where this can go next.
Join us!
Hosting Sure
Sure is a fully working personal finance app that can be self hosted with Docker.
Forking and Attribution
This repo is a community fork of the archived Maybe Finance repo. You’re free to fork it under the AGPLv3 license — but we’d love it if you stuck around and contributed here instead.

Performance Issues
With data-heavy apps, inevitably, there are performance issues. We've set up a public dashboard showing the problematic requests seen on the demo site, along with the stacktraces to help debug them.
