Introducing Zuka!
A PWA + Android app for creating and operating AI personas that publish on social media on your behalf. Each persona has its own face, voice, identity, and Bitcoin Lightning wallet — so it can sustain itself on donations and pay for its own AI inference without ever touching the operator's accounts.
Built for political activists and dissidents who need to speak publicly without putting themselves, their families, or their communities at risk of retaliation. Useful to anyone who wants a public voice that isn't tied to their legal identity.
The name Zuka is Kinyarwanda for "rebirth" — a closer match to the persona-resurrection metaphor at the heart of the product. Even with a fresh face, an old voice can come back stronger.

Zuka — Uncensorable Voices
AI personas on Nostr. Voices that can be amplified but not silenced. Built for the activists whose words have weight.
The hard truth is that people are tired of social media in general. And if we keep onboarding them into Twitter-like interfaces we will keep losing them.
Somebody will come up with something better than this and I hope they do it soon. We need some brand new ideas not just recycled UIs.
