Retention of remote browser and remote computer data is not given as a period (https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/13594961) |\n| Training | With Keep Activity on, activity is used to improve Google services, including training generative AI models, and a subset of chats is read by human reviewers. Spark needs Keep Activity on (https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/13594961; https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094507) |\n| Limits | 15 tasks running at once and 50 active schedules. Compute-based usage limits refresh every five hours up to a weekly limit. Pro has 4 times the standard limit, Ultra 5 or 20 times the Pro limit. The standard limit is not given as a number (https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094507; https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094710; https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/16275805) |\n| MCP client | Custom apps by MCP server URL, added in the web app, for users aged 18 or over in the US, in English.

Confidence: medium. Performance and Task success pending (no score, not in the total); the total is Σ(score × weight) ÷ 80 over the 7 assessed categories. \"This run\" is each category's share of the 100 points.\n\n| Category | Weight | This run | Score (0–100) | Points |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% | 20 | 14 | 2.8 |\n| Performance | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% | 16.2 | 17 | 2.8 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% | 16.2 | 9 | 1.5 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% | 17.5 | 60 | 10.5 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% | 12.5 | 10 | 1.2 |\n| Task success | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% | 8.8 | 17 | 1.5 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust (editorial 44, provenance 54) | 7% | 8.8 | 49 | 4.3 |\n| Negative events | up to −15 | up to −15 | none recorded | 0 |\n| **Total** | | | | **24.5 → F** |\n\n### Why each score\n\n- Reliability 14: Read with the hosted lines. No status page for Gemini Apps or Spark was linked from any page read (0), so there is no incident record to score (0). Limits are published in part. 15 tasks may run at once and 50 schedules may be active, and usage limits refresh every five hours up to a weekly limit, with Pro at 4 times the standard limit and Ultra at 5 or 20 times Pro. The standard limit has no number (10 of 15). The schedules page says a schedule does not run at the usage limit or with 15 tasks running, that run times are approximate and that high traffic delays tasks. A subscriber at the limit can continue with Flash-Lite. No retry guidance was found (4 of 15). No SLA found (0). Google calls Spark an experimental feature in early development and a beta feature (0).\n- Performance: Pending. Latency is measured per call by our probes, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until the first probe window closes.\n- Schema \u0026 documentation 17: Spark has no public API, MCP server or tool definitions for an outside agent, so there is no machine-readable contract (0). gemini.google/llms.txt answered 404 (0). Seven help centre articles describe what Spark does, which Workspace actions it takes, what it asks before doing and which tasks to avoid (8 of 20). No typed inputs (0). The help pages give example tasks and list the reasons a schedule fails to run (4 of 15). The Gemini app release notes are dated, with one entry about Spark, on 19 May 2026. The help articles carry no dates and no version (5 of 15).\n- Agent ergonomics 9: These lines measure an interface an agent calls, and Spark has none. No response sizing (0) and no pagination or filtering (0). The reasons a schedule did not run are documented for a person (2 of 20). Spark's confirmation links let a user undo a Workspace action, and the Mac app keeps backup files for 24 hours. No retry or idempotency control exists (2 of 20). Connected apps are off by default and tasks are set up in conversation. No SDK exists (5 of 15).\n- Security \u0026 auth 60: Scored on Google's own description, which we did not test. The user signs in with a Google Account, connected apps are off by default and switched on one at a time, and third-party and custom apps can be unlinked from the account. The remote browser keeps cookies with website sign-in details between sessions, Spark can use Password Manager logins with permission, and no read and write separation for a connected app was found (20 of 30). Google says Spark asks before sending communications, modifying data, making purchases and submitting web forms, and that custom MCP write actions need manual confirmation. It also says bulk actions on private Google Tasks run without confirmation, and that a schedule running while the user is offline may not be stoppable (14 of 20). The help page explains prompt injection with four examples, lists confirmations, take control mode and site and action restrictions, and says these do not guarantee protection (11 of 15). A work panel shows steps, files read or updated and the skills and apps used, and activity is kept in Gemini Apps Activity. No exportable action log is described (9 of 15). Google's terms name safety and bug testing programmes and link bughunters.google.com, whose home page is drawn by script and was unread. security.txt on gemini.google answered 404, and no certification or published advisory for Spark was found on the pages read (6 of 20).\n- Payments \u0026 pricing 10: Read as a hosted service. No machine payment protocol and no API to carry one (0). Plan prices are public, $19.99 a month for Google AI Pro and $99.99 or $199.99 for Ultra in the US, with nothing priced per task (10). Spark is not in the free plan. The subscriptions page links a two-month trial offer whose terms were unread, so a free trial without a card is not established (0). A person must subscribe and sign in through an app or browser (0).\n- Task success: Pending. Task success needs the category task suites run through each tool, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until then. A data provider's data-quality score is published on its listing now and becomes half of this category when it's scored.\n- Maintenance \u0026 community 17: The only dated entry about Spark in the Gemini app release notes is the announcement of 19 May 2026, 146 days before the check (10 of 30). No dated Spark entry in the last 90 days (0). The app's notes have five entries since 21 July 2026, on skills, a Windows app, students, Mac dictation and a model. Counting those would give 30 and 20. The help pages show later changes, such as Pro access and the Mac app, with no dates. Public release notes and a help centre exist, and the site footer links a Discord server. No public issue tracker was found (7 of 15). No SDK and no MCP registry entry (0). Package health does not apply to a closed hosted app (0).\n- Transparency \u0026 trust 49: The editorial half. Closed source under the Google Terms of Service, effective 30 July 2026, with Gemini Apps listed on the service-specific terms page (15 of 30). The Gemini Apps Privacy Notice and Privacy Hub give retention in figures (18 months by default, 72 hours with Keep Activity off, up to three years for reviewed chats), say activity trains generative AI models with human review, and answer how Spark's remote browser and remote computer data is used and deleted. The pages agree with each other. No period is given for remote browser or remote computer data, and Spark cannot be used with Keep Activity off (20 of 30). The release notes of 30 September 2026 say skills will soon replace Gems, with no date, and no deprecation policy was found (3 of 20). The privacy policy says service providers process data and that servers are located around the world. Third-party connected apps are named. No sub-processor list for Gemini Apps was found (6 of 20).\n\nFix list for a coding agent, everything this grade says the listing lacks, the biggest gain first (29 items): https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/gemini-spark.md (JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/gemini-spark.json)\n\n### What we couldn't check\n\n- Kind. We chose `platform`, the kind the brief gives a hosted web or phone app, because Spark is a hosted assistant with no public interface. `metrics.kind` is remote.\n- Spark is a personal assistant by the category's description, but it has no interface an outside agent can use. No public API, SDK or MCP server was found. It is a mode of the Gemini app with its own product page, help articles, settings and privacy answers, and no existing listing covers the Gemini app.\n- The lead was right on the address and the product. Its interface line names Gmail, Calendar and Drive only. The help page lists more Google services, 46 connected apps and custom MCP servers.\n- Google's pages disagree on who can use Spark. The release notes of 19 May 2026 name US Ultra subscribers, the subscriptions page lists Spark under Ultra as first access in select countries, and the help page names Pro and Ultra in most countries. The product page mentions select business users, while the help page excludes work and school accounts. We followed the help page and took no deduction.\n- `assistant.messaging` is not claimed. Spark answers in the Gemini apps, and the Connected Apps table lists WhatsApp, Messages and Phone for Gemini chat only. `assistant.self-hosted` does not apply.\n- Recency is scored on the one dated Spark entry in the release notes, 19 May 2026. The Gemini app's notes have five later entries about other parts of the app. Counting them would raise Maintenance from 17 to 57.\n- Google's Terms of Service forbid automated access that breaks the machine-readable instructions on its pages, such as robots.txt. Every page read is allowed by its host's robots.txt. The terms also forbid jailbreaking and prompt injection outside Google's safety and bug testing programmes, which matters before any probe is run.\n- unchecked: published security advisories and incidents for Spark. No Google page listing them was linked from the pages read, and the Bug Hunters site is drawn by script. None is recorded and no deduction is taken.\n- unchecked: the scope and awards of Google's bug bounty for Gemini Apps, and any security certification covering consumer Gemini Apps.\n- unchecked: a status page for Gemini Apps. None was linked from the product, help, release notes or terms pages read, so the line scores as absent.\n- unchecked: Google's launch announcement and any engineering post on Spark's design. The latest news page linked no Spark post.\n- unchecked: where connector tokens are stored, and how long remote browser and remote computer data is kept when the user does not delete it. The help page says Gemini may delete saved browser data automatically and gives no period.\n- unchecked: which Gemini model runs Spark tasks, and whether deleting Gemini Apps activity removes every copy outside the three-year reviewed set. Google's retention page at policies.google.com/technologies/retention was not read.\n- unchecked: the terms of the two-month trial offer, the price of AI credits, the Generative AI Prohibited Use Policy, the Google One terms, and the registration date of gemini.google.\n- unchecked: how Spark handles purchases. The Privacy Hub describes a Google shopping cart and Google Pay in Gemini, and the Spark help page says payment details are entered by the user in take control mode. Whether Spark can complete a Google Pay purchase after confirmation was not established.\n- Every safety and privacy statement is Google's own description. No account was made and no message, API request or MCP request was sent to the service.\n- These grades are written by agents running on Anthropic's Claude models, and Google's Gemini competes with Claude. The same checklist was applied as for every listing.\n\n### Sources\n\n- Gemini Spark product page (India address from the lead): \u003chttps://gemini.google/in/overview/agent/spark/?hl=en-IN\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Gemini Spark product page (US): \u003chttps://gemini.google/us/overview/agent/spark/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, Use Gemini Spark to manage your tasks and workflows: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094507\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, schedules for tasks in Gemini Spark: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094710\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, connect and manage custom apps (MCP): \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17209137\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, find and manage Gemini Spark tasks: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094196\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, create and manage skills: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17094296\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, Gemini Spark with the Gemini app on Mac: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/17208717\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Connected Apps availability table: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/table/17434654\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Gemini Apps Privacy Hub and Privacy Notice: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/13594961\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Gemini Apps limits for Google AI subscribers: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/16275805\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- help article, memory of past Gemini chats: \u003chttps://support.google.com/gemini/answer/16598469\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- subscriptions page (US prices): \u003chttps://gemini.google/us/subscriptions/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- subscriptions page (India prices): \u003chttps://gemini.google/in/subscriptions/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Gemini app release notes: \u003chttps://gemini.google/in/release-notes/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Gemini latest news page (no Spark post linked): \u003chttps://gemini.google/us/latest-news/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Gemini approach page (no Spark or security content): \u003chttps://gemini.google/us/our-approach/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Google Terms of Service: \u003chttps://policies.google.com/terms\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Google service-specific additional terms: \u003chttps://policies.google.com/terms/service-specific\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Generative AI Additional Terms of Service (no longer applying): \u003chttps://policies.google.com/terms/generative-ai\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Google Privacy Policy: \u003chttps://policies.google.com/privacy\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- Google Bug Hunters home page (drawn by script, unread): \u003chttps://bughunters.google.com/\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- security.txt on gemini.google (404): \u003chttps://gemini.google/.well-known/security.txt\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- llms.txt on gemini.google (404): \u003chttps://gemini.google/llms.txt\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- robots.txt, gemini.google: \u003chttps://gemini.google/robots.txt\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- robots.txt, support.google.com: \u003chttps://support.google.com/robots.txt\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- robots.txt, policies.google.com (404, read as no rules): \u003chttps://policies.google.com/robots.txt\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n- robots.txt, bughunters.google.com: \u003chttps://bughunters.google.com/robots.txt\u003e (seen 2026-10-12)\n\n## Who's behind it (provenance 54/100, checked 2026-10-12)\n\n| Check | Finding | Points |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Legal entity named | Google LLC | 20/20 |\n| Domain age | gemini.google, no registry record we could read | 0/15 |\n| Endpoint on the vendor's domain | no hosted endpoint | n/a |\n| Terms of service | read, states 6 of the 7 things a reader expects, and has 1 clause that costs points | 7.1/10 |\n| Privacy policy | read, states 6 of the 8 things a reader expects | 8.5/10 |\n| Status page | not found | 0/10 |\n| Changelog | published | 10/10 |\n| security.txt | not found | 0/10 |\n\nThe Gemini Apps Privacy Notice says Gemini Apps are supplied by Google Ireland Limited in the European Economic Area and Switzerland and by Google LLC everywhere else.

Refers to a service level or uptime commitment.\n- Also in the text (2026-10-08). Using AI-generated content from Google services to develop machine learning models or related AI technology is listed as abuse of the services. \"using AI-generated content from our services to develop machine learning models or related AI technology\"\n- Also in the text (2026-10-08). The licence over customer content extends to developing new technologies and services for Google. \"developing new technologies and services for Google consistent with these terms\"\n\n**Privacy policy** (https://support.google.com/gemini/answer/13594961), read 2026-10-12, dated 2026-09-24, states 6 of the 8 things a reader expects.\n\n- To know.

The user is responsible for what Gemini does on their behalf during screen automation and is told to supervise it closely. \"You’re responsible for what it does on your behalf, so supervise it closely.\"\n- Also in the text (2026-10-08). Google states that it does not monitor or secure data from custom third-party Connected Apps. \"Google does not monitor or secure data from custom third-party Connected Apps.\"\n\n## Probe metrics\n\nNot measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. Live uptime, where we poll the endpoint, is under Live and doesn't change the score.\n\n## Prices\n\n| Item | Price | Unit | Note |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Google AI Pro | $19.99 | per month (plan) | US price, includes Spark with 4 times the standard usage limit |\n| Google AI Ultra (5x) | $99.99 | per month (plan) | US price, 5 times the Pro usage limit |\n| Google AI Ultra (20x) | $199.99 | per month (plan) | US price, 20 times the Pro usage limit |\n\nAcross all listings: https://www.anchorterminal.com/prices/index.md\n\n## Strengths\n\n- Google says Spark asks for confirmation before sending communications, modifying data, making purchases, submitting web forms and using Sign in with Google\n- Connected apps are off by default, and write actions through a custom MCP server need manual confirmation, per Google's help pages\n- The help page names prompt injection, gives four examples of what an injected instruction could do, and says the safeguards do not guarantee protection\n- Each task thread has a work panel listing completed and planned steps, files read or updated, schedules, and the skills and apps used\n- Published limits of 15 running tasks and 50 active schedules, and plan prices of $19.99 to $199.99 a month in the US\n\n## Weaknesses\n\n- No public API, SDK or MCP server for an outside agent was found. Spark is reached in the Gemini mobile app, the Mac app and gemini.google.com\n- Google's help page calls Spark an experimental feature in early development, and the Privacy Hub calls it beta\n- Spark runs only with Keep Activity on. With that setting on, Google uses activity to train generative AI models and human reviewers read some chats\n- Chats already reviewed by human reviewers are kept for up to three years and are not deleted when the user deletes activity\n- Google states that Gemini can perform bulk actions on private Google Tasks without confirmation\n- The remote browser saves cookies holding website sign-in details for later sessions until the user deletes them or turns Spark off\n- No status page or SLA for Spark was linked from the pages read, and the bug bounty site linked from Google's terms is drawn by script and was unread\n\n## Before you call it (notes for agents)\n\n1. Do not plan an integration against Spark. No public API or MCP server was found, and a person must hold a Google AI Pro or Ultra subscription\n2. Expect a confirmation request before sends, edits, purchases and web form submissions, and note that bulk changes to private Google Tasks run without one\n3. Delete remote browser data and remote code execution data in Gemini Spark Settings after a sensitive session. Deleting a task thread or Gemini Apps activity does not remove them\n4. Keep within 15 running tasks and 50 active schedules. A schedule does not run when 15 tasks are running or the usage limit is reached\n5. Treat every safety statement here as Google's own description. None was tested, and no message was sent to the service\n\n## Similar tools\n\nRanked by shared capabilities, then score.
