## 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.
Sure can be accessed from a browser, the macOS desktop app, the mobile app, API
clients, and LLM agents. See Sure Clients for an overview.
## 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.
To stay compliant and avoid trademark issues:
- Be sure to include the original AGPLv3 license and clearly state in your README that your fork is based on Maybe Finance but is **not affiliated with or endorsed by** Maybe Finance Inc.
- "Maybe" is a trademark of Maybe Finance Inc. and therefore, use of it is NOT allowed in forked repositories (or the logo)
## 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.
