As the first part of the Overview page redesign, we've launched a debt / asset pie chart, alongside a health score to show you how good your ratio is.
Today we're launching the first version of Strabo AI - a model trained to respond as a financial adviser to answer both general finance questions (what is an ISA etc) and questions specific to your portfolio using the data from your dashboard.
We've broken out the assistant into its own page and given you some sample prompts at the top to get you started. Ask about diversification, rebalancing, risk, returns and more although please note that this is a Beta, so go easy.
You can now add multiple manual stocks simultaneously, and keep these inside a custom parent account. This means you can have a manual brokerage account with children inside it, each with its own cost basis and ROI.
We are still getting feedback that the onboarding process is too cumbersome. So we’ve decided to remove the add account step entirely, and pre-populate new accounts with some dummy data.
We’ve sent everyone a feedback modal which will appear on you next login, so you can share some insights with us for new feature development. Please be candid in your responses - all feedback is welcome.
You are now able to edit both the parent and children elements of synced accounts. Please note that this will also reflect on custom pages where you are able to filter by these new names
We quietly rolled out a few bug fixes this cycle, including improved coverage for manual stocks, and an error with the pie chart on custom pages.

Manual stocks were only searchable by stock name, causing some confusion between holdings. This has been changed so the search bar is now by ticker only.

We've simplified the Accounts display to focus solely on Assets & Liabilities, added allocation bars for clarity, and introduced a filtering feature. Plus, we've included a totals row at the bottom of the chart for easier analysis. These enhancements enhance usability and empower users to make informed decisions efficiently.
We've incorporated a loading indicator following the final onboarding step in the sign-up process.
We made some small improvements to mobile responsiveness
For the first time, you can now add new pages to your Strabo dashboard! We've added two widgets, Timeline and Historical Data - you can filter the data these show, duplicate them and drag and drop. We will be starting to add more over the coming months, so please suggest some that you'd like to see.
We designed a new screen for platform errors to make those irritating malfunctions a little more bearable.
Updated Investments table to pull Cost Basis automatically. This should now work for most synced accounts: where the data is available, it will now always show on the table, along with your ROI.
Bug fixes to asset balance cards for non-UK based accounts.
Performance chip added to show % gain or loss based on your chart filters, including both time filters and asset filters. However, it won't display if the period starts from 0, ensuring accurate representation. The total is now responsive to update with the chart too.
We’ve separated platform sections on the back end into individual widgets. These will soon be draggable and configurable in the new pages
You can now effortlessly add new tags to your list by hitting the "Enter" key, assign tags to specific accounts for better organization, delete tags you no longer need, and navigate through your tag list using arrow keys for a more intuitive experience.
Thanks to @aimee's suggestion, we've implemented a valuable enhancement! Inside the "Add Accounts" page, we've added a direct link to our Security Page for quick access to detailed security information. Additionally, a reassuring message now assures users that when linking accounts, their data is secure, and no information will be exposed.
When the app or new components load, you'll see a sleek loading animation, signalling that the page hasn't fully loaded. These animations last only a few seconds and vanish once the components and content are loaded.
The tagging system has been updated for increased speed. We've added a new dropdown menu, and now you have the option to delete tags.
Designed a bar to be added to the accounts page for the Syncing State of each account. This bar now shows a spinning icon when the account is syncing and changes to a success status when the item is synced.
We've made improvements to the country selector menu. It is now responsive, and we've upgraded to a new UI and loading animation.
Account Connectivity Issues Fixed: as many of you will know, we have been having issues connecting certain accounts. This has mostly been brokerages and was due to an issue with our API provider which has now been resolved. The accounts you were having problems with before should now be working
Deleting Accounts Changed: Originally, we had designed the platform to convert synced accounts to manual ones before deleting. This would ensure continuation of data in case a user wanted to resync. This was causing confusion, so we've changed it to instant delete
