Our verdict
Genspark suits people who want an AI agent for research, slides, sheets and documents in one place, with 4.7/5 on the App Store and 4.6/5 on Google Play. The trade-offs are credit-based costs, a 10x price jump from Plus to Pro, and Trustpilot complaints about credits spent on flawed outputs.

Experience & key features
What Genspark is
Genspark is built by MainFunc and began as an AI search engine producing "Sparkpages", launched in June 2024. According to TechCrunch, founders Eric Jing and Kay Zhu started the company in 2023 and raised a $60M seed round led by Lanchi Ventures at a $260M post-money valuation. The homepage now calls it an "all-in-one AI workspace", version 6.0.
Key features
The homepage lists an AI office suite (Slides, Sheets, Docs, GenMail), a build suite (Design, Code, Dashboard), an AI Media Studio for video, image, audio and 3D, AI chat, meeting notes, and plugins for Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. The help center also mentions the Super Agent, Call For Me and a Chrome extension. Commercial use of AI-generated content is included from Plus.
Pricing and credits
Per the help center, Free gives 100 credits per day up to a lifetime allowance; Plus is $24.99 per month ($19.99 billed yearly) from 10,000 monthly credits; Pro is $249.99 per month ($199.99 billed yearly) from 125,000 credits; Team is $40 per seat per month. Credits track processing effort, so regenerations, retries and long chats cost more. Credits do not carry over on a downgrade.

Ratings and risks
The App Store shows 4.7/5 from 4,450 ratings and Google Play 4.6/5 from 112K reviews. Trustpilot has 483 reviews but hides the overall score over a guideline breach and says it removed fake reviews; themes include responsive support, credits spent on flawed outputs and misread instructions. Read the 72-hour refund policy before paying.
Versus alternatives
Genspark fits when you want one agent producing many kinds of documents. If you only need slides, Gamma is more focused; for a general autonomous agent, Manus sits in the same group. Compare credit costs against your real workload.

Cancellation & refunds
Per the help center, each customer can receive only one refund. The window runs from the charge: 72 hours for most customers (14 days in the EU, UK and Turkey; 7 days in Korea), for monthly and annual plans, and only if less than 50% of the plan or quota was used. Cancelling is not a refund request. Purchases made through the App Store or Google Play are handled by the store.
Privacy
The privacy policy (updated 24 Jul 2026) says data is stored on Microsoft Azure, queries may be sent to the OpenAI or Anthropic APIs to serve requests, and Genspark does not sell personal data. When you close an account, account data is deleted from its servers within 30 days. The Terms of Service (updated 2 Apr 2026) grant Genspark a license to use content you submit to operate, promote and improve the service and develop new ones; the pages opened describe no separate opt-out switch for this. Genspark says it does not use Google Workspace API data to train generalized AI models.

Why this score
High store ratings suggest an approachable app, but the many agents and the credit and Free Quota system add complexity.
Why this score
Chat, slides, sheets, docs, code, design, image, video, audio and meeting notes in one place, plus Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace plugins.
Why this score
Plus at $19.99-$24.99 per month is reasonable, but failed runs still spend credits; Pro at $249.99 a month is a big jump and the refund window is short.
Why this score
High store ratings, but some Trustpilot reviewers say the AI misreads prompts and makes unrequested changes.
Why this score
A detailed help center and in-app support requests; many Trustpilot reviews praise quick replies, but Trustpilot removed fake reviews and hides the overall score, so that praise carries less weight.
Why this score
Terms license content for improving the service and developing new ones with no visible opt-out; queries may go to OpenAI or Anthropic; it states it does not sell data.
