GenSpark Review: The AI Toolkit That Does Too Much (and Yes, I Tried Everything)

From slides and sheets to phone calls and AI try-ons, GenSpark does everything but tuck you in at night. I tested the weirdest features so you don’t have to.

You ever open a tool and immediately feel like you need a tutorial for the tutorial?

That was me, 30 seconds into using GenSpark.

It’s not just one tool — it’s 15 mashed into one.
Slides, Sheets, image editors, video creators, phone-call bots, background removers, deep research agents...

I started clicking buttons.
Things got weird fast.

🧪 I Tested the Tools So You Don’t Have To

Here’s what I tried (and survived):

📊 1. AI Sheets

Imagine Google Sheets — but caffeinated and judgmental.

I uploaded a janky CSV file and asked it to:

“Fill in missing data and explain what’s happening like I’m five.”

✅ It filled out missing fields
✅ It added context
✅ It casually called my formatting “interesting”
10/10 passive-aggression. I respect it.

🖼️ 2. Image Expansion + Background Remover

I uploaded a picture of Plugsy mid-ramble and clicked “Expand.”

It added a dramatic sky, more background plugs, and what looked like a confused squirrel.

Was it useful? Yes.
Did I need the squirrel? Emotionally, yes.

🎞️ 3. AI Slides

Gave it this prompt:

“Make a slide deck for a fake pitch called ‘AI Tools That Will Ruin Your Sleep Schedule.’”

Two minutes later:
✅ Fully designed deck
✅ Title slides, bullet points, even speaker notes
✅ Slide 6 literally said “Also: caffeine.”

10/10. Would present again.

☎️ 4. AI That Makes Phone Calls

Yes, this is real. You can create an agent that calls people for you.

I set it up to confirm a dentist appointment.
It generated a realistic script… then panicked and tried to reschedule me for Tuesday at 4 a.m.

It’s not quite ready for prime time. But for prank calls? Oh, the possibilities…

😂 Funniest Feature: “Make My Day Harder”

No joke. There’s a tool literally called “Make My Day Harder.”
I clicked it.

It gave me a random complex challenge using 3 other GenSpark tools at once.

My task:

  • Summarize a long PDF

  • Generate a YouTube description

  • Make a 60-second voiceover script

...for a fictional AI fashion brand called “StyleBot.”
I finished it. The AI applauded. I cried.

🧠 Verdict: Chaos, Productivity, or Both?

GenSpark is like a coworking space where:

  • Every tool has potential

  • Half of them are unhinged

  • And the coffee machine might be sentient

If you’re:

  • A creator

  • A digital marketer

  • Or someone who loves pressing buttons just to see what happens…

This is your new playground.

🛠️ Final Thought

Some AI tools are simple.

GenSpark is not.

It’s messy. It’s overstuffed. It’s a one-stop shop for “Wait, it can do that too?”

But once you get the hang of it?
It’s actually a powerful toolbox — and kind of fun to break.

Just… maybe don’t let it call your dentist. 🔌

🔌 Shameless Side Quests

You’ve finished the main story. But the side quests are even weirder...
