Fina shipped a batch of improvements focused on speed, clarity, and better answers from your data. Here are the highlights from the latest releases.

1. Smarter AI block generation​

We upgraded the AI pipeline that builds metric blocks from your questions.

What this means for you:

  • More reliable AI-generated blocks, especially for complex questions.
  • Better handling of formula metrics and variable-based calculations.
  • Cleaner defaults for charts and configuration so blocks need less manual cleanup.

If you have not tried it yet, open the Add Block flow and ask a question like: "How did my grocery spending change this month?"

2. Edit AI blocks directly in chat​

AI responses that return a block now render the same block component you use on the dashboard.

That means you can:

  • Click to open the editor right inside chat.
  • Tweak the block without losing conversation context.
  • Keep the dashboard and chat experience consistent.

3. Faster manual transaction entry with defaults​

Manual transaction entry now remembers your preferred defaults.

You can save defaults such as:

  • Account
  • Category
  • Currency
  • Merchant

When you add a new manual transaction, these values are pre-filled so you can move faster and make fewer mistakes.

4. More prebuilt blocks and a smoother creation flow​

The block library and creation flow received a refresh, making it easier to start with a prebuilt view and customize from there.

Look for new templates across cashflow, net worth, budgeting, forecasts, and investments.
