Overview

Sure is a community-maintained fork of the Maybe personal finance application, built with Ruby on Rails and React. It covers net-worth tracking, account aggregation, investment monitoring, and goal-setting in a clean, modern UI. The project continues Maybe's mission after its original open-sourcing, keeping the codebase active and accepting community improvements. It deploys via Docker Compose.

Where it falls short of Mint

  • Community fork with a smaller contributor base; long-term maintenance cadence is uncertain
  • Bank connection / Plaid integration requires API credentials and is US-centric
  • No mobile native app; web-only interface
  • Budgeting and envelope features less developed compared to YNAB or Actual

We list the gaps honestly so you can decide if the trade-off is worth owning your data.
