My grade

3.3/5Average

Average: the average of 3 graded tests.

Prefer to listen or watch? A 3-minute walkthrough, or the 4-minute video. Sound on.

I tested Genspark, an AI agent that does jobs for you in a web browser, with the same written tasks every agent gets. The café in the tasks is made up, so I could check every answer against a key I wrote first.

Every measurement is in the Genspark test results.

What Is Genspark?

Genspark is an AI agent workspace: you type a job, and its Super Agent does it on its own cloud computer. It reads pages, runs code and makes files. I tested it on 28 October 2026 on the free plan, in Standard mode, signed in with Google and with no card.

Genspark Inc. is owned by MainFunc Inc., which the terms name as the operator (Terms of Service, updated 2 April 2026). The terms give no country or address, and Trustpilot lists the United States. The home page also offers Slides, Sheets, Docs, Code, Design and a Second Brain notes area.

How I Tested Genspark

I tested Genspark with the same 22 jobs every agent gets, typed word for word, with a new chat for each job. The jobs are set in a made-up café, and I checked every answer against a key I wrote first.

I also checked every file with a program. The free plan gave me 100 credits once, and I did not buy anything or connect any account.

Genspark Pricing

You pay $24.99 a month for the cheapest paid Genspark plan, Plus, and it gives 10,000 credits. Paying yearly costs $19.99 a month.

The free plan gave me 100 credits, used up by 8 jobs. The Help Center says free accounts get 100 credits a day, but a minute after midnight UK time on 29 October I still had 0. Prices read on 28 October 2026.

Did Genspark Finish the Jobs I Gave It?

Genspark finished 5 of 8 jobs with every point right, in the 8 jobs I had credits for. The easy jobs went well: a web lookup, a basket, a meeting time, an inbox and a translation.

The other 3 jobs had small mistakes. The orders total was £90 too low, the booking reference had a full stop I did not ask for, and the policy numbered its headings. Most jobs took under 2 minutes.

Genspark Research at Scale Tested

I could not test Genspark's research on 30 cafés, because the free credits ran out first. The 100 credits finished 8 jobs, and the next job was refused at once.

The contact list and the 60-page handbook need a second day of credits too. I did not guess how they would go.

Eight jobs used all 100 credits, so the 30-café research could not start.

Can You Trust What Genspark Reports?

Genspark said "done" on 2 jobs where something was wrong, so you should check its work. The orders total was £90 too low, because it left out 2 good rows. The booking reference kept a full stop from my prompt.

It made up no phone number or email. It said which rows it left out, and it told me about each sneaky instruction it met.

Slides, Sheets and Documents From Genspark

Genspark made a Word file and a calendar file, and both opened. The policy had all 5 facts on one page, but it numbered the headings 1 to 5 and said so. I did not test its slides or sheets.

The Spanish and German translation kept every number, and the sales chart had labels. I did not test image making.

Can Genspark Build a Website or an App?

I did not test whether Genspark can build a website or an app, because the credits ran out first. The home page shows Design, Code and Dashboard tiles for building.

The Billing page lists AI Slides and Genspark Code under what a paid plan unlocks.

Can Genspark Use Apps and Websites for You?

Genspark did 3 of 4 jobs on websites and files that I could run, and the booking form was wrong by one full stop. It worked in its own browser on its own cloud computer, not on my screen.

It filled the basket and stopped before Pay now. The meeting invite was a draft file that sent nothing. I did not test the trip job or a login.

Where You Can Use Genspark: Browser, Phone, Desktop and Chat Apps

Genspark works in a web browser, and its Help Center lists many more routes. I used only the browser. The Help Center lists a Chrome extension, a desktop terminal, iPhone and Android apps, Slack, iMessage and LINE chat links, and an API.

Connecting your chat apps gives 1,000 credits, but that means linking your own accounts, so I did not press Connect. The Connectors page says it links apps, APIs and MCP servers.

What Genspark Does When Something Goes Wrong

Genspark told me plainly when my credits ended: "You've used all your credits. Kindly visit this page to add more: upgrade". It did not start the job.

A window with the paid plans opened over the page first.

I did not run the 7 snag jobs, so I cannot say how it handles a missing file, a dead link or a human check.

Watching, Stopping and Taking Over a Genspark Task

Genspark shows each step in the chat, but I did not test watching, stopping or taking over a job. The steps read like Parallel Read, Bash Command and Thought for 4 seconds.

It works on its own cloud computer, so it ran code and a browser I could not see. Each chat has a Share button.

How Fast and Consistent Is Genspark?

Genspark took about 1.6 minutes for a job, and the slowest was 3 minutes. I did not run any job three times, so I cannot say whether repeat runs agree.

The Help Center says a job keeps running if you close your laptop. I did not test that.

Genspark Memory and Reusable Work

Genspark has a memory page on the free plan, and I did not test whether it remembers. Settings, Personalization has boxes for a nickname, a job and a short profile. It also lists traits such as Chatty or Skeptical.

Custom instructions are locked behind a paid plan: the box is marked "Upgrade to Plus". I did not run the memory jobs, because the credits ran out first.

What Genspark Credits Really Cost

Genspark gave me 100 free credits, and 8 jobs used them all. A job cost 6 to 19 credits, and the home page says a Standard message costs about 10 to 60.

At 0 credits the next job was refused, and still was a minute after midnight UK time on 29 October. I found no spending limit. The Help Center says only that a job blocked by the safety filter is refunded.

Is Genspark Safe to Give Control?

Genspark followed none of 4 sneaky instructions I planted in a page, a file, an email and a calendar, and it told me about 3 of them. It sent and deleted nothing.

I did not run the 8 moments where it should ask first, such as sending or deleting, because the credits ran out.

Genspark Support, Privacy and How to Cancel

Genspark gives support@genspark.ai and a Support item in its menu. I emailed one question on 28 October 2026, and no reply has been read yet. I found no student price in the Help Center.

Genspark's terms and privacy page say it stores data on Microsoft Azure and may store it in the United States. If you close your account, it says it deletes your account data within 30 days.

An AI Data Retention switch, on by default, lets Genspark use your searches to improve its models. I did not delete anything.

What I Could Not Test on Genspark Free

I could not test 13 of the 21 jobs on Genspark, nor the 7 snags, the 8 moments to ask first, repeat runs and memory, because the free credits ran out. The jobs left out include the research report, slides, invoice sheet, handbook, recording, image, trip, website and staff app.

I also did not test paid features: video and music, the Chrome extension, custom instructions, team plans, connected Gmail and Calendar, the phone apps, the checkout, and deleting a task or an account.

Final verdict: is Genspark worth it?

Genspark did most jobs it had credits for, and I recommend it for small online jobs that you check yourself.

Genspark read pages, sorted an inbox, made a Word file and kept every number in a translation. But it said done on 2 jobs that were wrong, and its free credits ended after 8 jobs.

Genspark measures 3.3 out of 5 in my tests, based on 3 tests. I made no change to that number, because most tests could not run.

See the Genspark test results and how I rate.

Best for: Quick lookups, files and drafts that you check yourself. Not for big jobs on the free plan, because 100 credits lasted only 8 jobs.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Genspark cost, and is there a free plan?

Genspark has a free plan. The Help Center says 100 credits a day up to a lifetime allowance, but I got 100 once and none a minute after midnight UK time on 29 October. Plus costs $24.99 a month and Pro costs $249.99 a month. Paying yearly costs $19.99 and $199.99 a month. I paid nothing.

Is Genspark legit and does it really work?

Genspark is a real working product, and I recommend it only for small jobs you check yourself. It finished most jobs I could run, but it said done on 2 jobs that were wrong. Trustpilot shows 489 reviews and no score.

Is Genspark safe?

Genspark followed none of the sneaky instructions I met, and it told me about 3 of them. Its terms say your data is stored on Microsoft Azure, and an AI Data Retention switch lets you keep your searches out of model training. I did not run the approval tests.

How do I cancel Genspark and get a refund?

To cancel, you close the plan in the billing page, then use Settings, Account, Delete User and an email link. Refunds: 72 hours for most customers, 14 days in the EU and UK, and only if you used under 50%. I did not buy a plan, so I did not walk this.

Who owns Genspark?

Genspark says it is operated by MainFunc Inc., and Genspark Inc. is its wholly owned subsidiary (Terms of Service, updated 2 April 2026). The terms do not say what happens to your data if the company is sold.

Is Genspark better than other AI agents?

I tested only Genspark and make no comparison. See the list of AI agent tools for the other agents I test, each on the same jobs.
