myGaru requires no capital investment from the government. The platform runs on a federated model, where businesses deploy their own instance of myGaru software, while identity resolution operates via intergated with myGaru national telecom infrastructure.

myGaru cloud is hosted within each country where the platform operates. It is specifically designed to prevent any cross-border data transfers — even during cohort-based processing between collaborating businesses using myGaru’s cloud-side software.

myGaru’s model is based on success-based fees from transactions within the platform, with no upfront investment required. For example, businesses that monetise their data charged a commission from actual data earnings, while advertising services pay an identity resolution fee per use — transferred to telecoms after deduction of myGarup-relate technical commission.

myGaru has intentionally avoided investment from VCs and multinational corporations to remain fully independent and offer governments a neutral product designed to support an equidistant, diverse data ecosystem. For added transparency, each country includes a local public board made up of nationally trusted figures who provide ongoing oversight of platform operations.

myGaru follows a decentralised operational model adapted to local cultural and regulatory contexts. In each market, the large language models (LLMs) used are selected by local stakeholders — including telecom operators and government bodies — to ensure trust, safety, and alignment with national interests.

Yes. myGaru was designed to comply with GDPR and can be flexibly adapted to meet the regulatory requirements of any country where it operates. The platform enforces strong privacy safeguards, prevents data enrichments between participants, and provides citizens with two-layered control over their data.
