Quick answer: GeraPersona is a marketplace where Ugandan creators, experts, and celebrities license AI personas — their voice, knowledge, and style — under a strict consent framework aligned with Uganda's Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019. Buyers pay per-use in UGX via MTN Mobile Money; royalties flow back to creators in UGX.

Why a persona marketplace for Uganda

Local experts — doctors, farmers, teachers, chefs, lawyers — carry specialised knowledge that most generic LLMs lack. GeraPersona lets them package that expertise, under consent terms they set, and earn royalties each time a buyer uses the persona. Creators retain revocation rights.

Regulatory backdrop

Personas process personal data under the Data Protection and Privacy Act 2019. Consent is recorded and can be revoked. Royalty payouts flow through Bank of Uganda-licensed PSPs. Tax handling via URA and creators receive annual statements for filing. Copyright and trademark handled via URSB.
