Frequently asked questions

What is GeraPersona?
GeraPersona is a marketplace for voice + personality skins you install on robots, Alexa, GeraVoice, Claude-desktop, or any AI agent with a voice interface. Pick from 200+ professional personas — British butler, calm grandmother, energetic coach — or upload someone you love. Creators keep 70% of every sale.
Can I record my grandfather's voice?
Yes — this is why GeraPersona exists. With 30 minutes of clean audio from home videos, phone recordings, or voicemails, you can create a family voice-skin. The skin stays in your household by default; you can set it public with a price if you want to share a beloved voice with the world. Designate heirs in the dashboard and royalties stay in the family across generations.
Who gets paid when someone downloads my persona?
You do. Every purchase is a Stripe Connect destination charge — 70% lands in your connected Stripe account the moment the payment captures. Platform keeps 30%. If you have designated estate heirs in the dashboard, their share of residuals activates when you opt out or pass away.
How does revenue share + estate royalty work?
Creators onboard via Stripe Connect Express (identity + payout details). On purchase, the platform sets application_fee_amount to 30% and transfer_data.destination to your connected account; Stripe splits the charge automatically on capture. Estate records designate heirs with a share_percent (1–100), signed at creation, revocable any time. When the creator opts out or dies, residuals route by those shares.
What about copyrighted characters and celebrity voices?
The service auto-flags submissions mentioning copyrighted characters (Mickey Mouse, Darth Vader, Yoda) and living celebrities (Gordon Ramsay, Morgan Freeman) as auto_reject_hint. Moderators check for a valid talent release before approval. Uploading a celebrity voice without licence is grounds for immediate rejection and creator account termination.
Which devices are supported?
Personas declare a compatibility list (Unitree G1, Boston Dynamics Spot, 1X Neo, Figure 02, Alexa, GeraVoice, Claude-desktop, ElevenLabs-compatible endpoints, ROS 2 platforms). The runtime reads this manifest and only exposes personas that match the caller. New devices added as they ship.
Are voice samples and full assets protected?
The 2-5 second sample clip is free and publicly hosted. The full asset URL is signed + time-limited — the service resolves it to a fresh URL at install time, never handing out a long-lived download link. Piracy is gated at the object-storage layer, not the app.
What happens when a persona is refunded?
A full Stripe refund via charge.refunded marks the purchase as REFUNDED and revokes access on all devices that had it. Partial refunds do not revoke; they are recorded on the purchase history. Dispute + chargeback flows follow Stripe's standard marketplace rules.
Can AI agents install personas on behalf of users?
Yes. GeraPersona ships with a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server exposing search_personas, get_persona, list_categories, install_persona, and get_creator_revenue. Agents authenticate as their operator and trigger purchase + install flows with user approval. Every agent-initiated transaction carries a consent token in metadata.
Is GeraPersona part of Gera Services?
Yes. GeraPersona is product #30 in the Gera Services portfolio, alongside GeraSkills, GeraClinic, GeraHome, GeraVoice, and 25 other verticals. Creators and buyers sign in with their Gera account and share a unified GeraCoins wallet across every product.
