* fix(insights): correct the budget card's figure, badge noise and toast a11y
Four defects found while reviewing the insights surfaces for hierarchy.
**The budget_at_risk card's focal figure argued against its own headline.**
`insight_key_figure` returned `budget_spent_pct` for both budget cards, so
"2 categories need attention in your budget" displayed "14% / of budget" —
a reassuring number as the visual focus of a warning. It now leads with the
flagged count ("2 / need attention"); budget_on_track keeps the percentage,
where overall consumption genuinely is the subject.
**The "New" pill carried no information.** Visiting /insights marks every
insight read in one `update_all`, so at first paint the pill was on every
row. On the page it becomes a dot — same signal, without an uppercase
tracked chip stealing weight from the title beside it. In the dashboard
widget it goes entirely: the well's header already counts unread ("New · 3")
and, with three rows, the pill was usually on all of them.
**The undo toast was silent to screen readers.** A card leaves the page via
a Turbo `remove`, which announces nothing, and the toast that explains it
had no live region — unlike its neighbour `_sync_toast`, which sets
`role="status" aria-live="polite"`.
**The undo toast could only be closed with a mouse.** Its close affordance
was a bare `icon "x"` with a click action: not focusable, not named. Now a
real `DS::Button`, matching `_sync_toast`.
The controller test asserting a per-row badge is updated to assert the
header count that replaces it, and to lock in the pill's removal.
* feat(insights): acknowledge instead of dismiss, on both surfaces (#2800)
Two complaints about the insight feed: the close (×) control felt wrong,
and clearing an insight was only possible on /insights — not on the
dashboard widget, which is the surface people actually look at.
**The × was lying.** Dismissal has never been permanent. GenerateInsightsJob
resurfaces a row whose bucketed metadata changes materially "even if the user
had read or dismissed the stale version" (its own comment), and 6 of 8
generators scope dedup_key to a month token, so dismissing July's budget card
says nothing about August's. A destructive-looking control was performing a
non-destructive act. It is now "Got it", and the contract is statable:
acknowledgement covers the numbers you saw; new numbers are a new insight.
No migration. The DB value stays "dismissed" and dismissed_at keeps its name;
only the enum key and the vocabulary the code speaks change, so existing rows
stay hidden and become undoable under an honest label.
**The action pyramid was inverted.** The escape hatch was a chromed icon
button in the card's top-right — the strongest secondary scan position — while
the card's actual purpose ("View budget") was a borderless ghost link under
the body text. Both now sit in a footer strip: the subject action gets the
chrome, acknowledging is quiet labelled text beside it, and the key figure
gets the corner to itself instead of competing with a control.
**The widget can clear its own rows.** Each row gains an acknowledge control,
revealed on pointer hover, on keyboard focus, and shown unconditionally on
touch where there is no hover. No gesture, so the section's drag-to-reorder
handlers are untouched. The row becomes a stretched link plus a sibling
button, because button_to renders a <form> and a form cannot nest in an <a>.
The group is named (group/insight). The dashboard <section> is itself a
`.group` for its header controls, and a bare group-hover: matches any ancestor
group — hovering one row, or the section header, revealed every row's control.
Acknowledging re-renders the well rather than removing a row, so the next
insight is promoted into the freed slot; Insight::FEED_LIMIT is now shared
between the two controllers that render it so they cannot drift. Undo restores
the row on both surfaces, and carries autofocus so it is one keystroke away
after the acknowledged card leaves the DOM.
* fix(insights): guard unacknowledge! against non-acknowledged insights
CodeRabbit, Major: an arbitrary/stale PATCH /unacknowledge (e.g. an old
undo-toast link clicked after GenerateInsightsJob has since expired or
resurrected the insight) could force it back to :read regardless of
its actual current state — including pulling an :expired insight back
into visible view.
Guards the transition to only reverse an actual acknowledgement, per
CodeRabbit's suggested fix.
* test(insights): fix stale dismiss_insight_url route from main merge
main's preview-gate test used the pre-rename dismiss/undismiss route names;
this branch renamed those to acknowledge/unacknowledge earlier.

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.
