Maybe: The OS for your personal finances

If you're looking for the previous React codebase, you can find it at maybe-finance/maybe-archive.

Backstory

We spent the better part of 2021/2022 building a personal finance + wealth management app called, Maybe. Very full-featured, including an "Ask an Advisor" feature which connected users with an actual CFP/CFA to help them with their finances (all included in your subscription).

The business end of things didn't work out, and so we shut things down mid-2023.

We spent the better part of $1,000,000 building the app (employees + contractors, data providers/services, infrastructure, etc.).

We're now reviving the product as a fully open-source project. The goal is to let you run the app yourself, for free, and use it to manage your own finances and eventually offer a hosted version of the app for a small monthly fee.

Requirements

  • Ruby >3 (see Gemfile)
  • PostgreSQL >9.3 (ideally, latest stable version)

Multi-currency support

If you'd like multi-currency support, there are a few extra steps to follow.

  1. Sign up for an API key at Open Exchange Rates. For now, you'll need the Developer plan, which is $12/mo.
  2. Add your API key to your .env file.
  3. Set the currencies you'd like to support in the .env file.
  4. Run rake currencies:seed
  5. Run rake exchange_rates:sync

Self Hosting

Our long term goal is to make self-hosting as easy as possible. That said, during these early stages of building the product, we are focusing our efforts on development.
