1. Introduction

Genspark Arrives in Japan

▲ Genspark TV Commercial (Official YouTube)

In 2026, Genspark made its full-scale entry into the Japanese market. Many of you have probably seen the name "Genspark" in TV commercials or train ads, haven't you?

"I'm curious about that tool I saw in the commercial!"
"I know ChatGPT, but what is Genspark?"
"I saw it in a commercial, but what kind of tool is it?"
"How is it different from ChatGPT?"

For those with such questions, this article explains everything from Genspark's basic functions to how to use it, in an easy-to-understand way for ChatGPT users.

💡 By the way...

"Genspark" is a new service, so its name is not yet widely known. Some people search on Google for "原図パーク" (Genzu Park), "j'sパーク" (J's Park), or "ゲンズパーク" (Genzu Park), but the correct name is "Genspark".

2. What is Genspark?

Official Name: Genspark
Operating Company: Genspark Inc.
Service Start: 2024 (Full-scale entry into Japan: 2026)
Official Website: https://www.genspark.ai/

Genspark is a multifunctional AI tool that offers the ease of use of ChatGPT, while providing all the features necessary for business, such as "slide creation," "image generation," "video creation," and "meeting minute creation."

⚠️ Genspark is not just a "chat AI"

Genspark is a multifunctional AI business tool. It can complete all necessary business document creation, such as presentation materials, image assets, video content, and meeting minutes, all within a single tool.

Differences from ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc., are like "excellent secretaries."
They are good at conversation and text generation, but on their own, they cannot create slides, generate images, or create videos.

On the other hand, Genspark is like a "secretary's office."
By equipping the secretary (AI) with various tools such as "slide creation tools," "image generation tools," and "video creation tools," tasks that could not be completed with ChatGPT can now be completed simply by giving instructions.

✅ For example, you can do these things with just instructions (not possible with ChatGPT)

  • "Create a presentation document with this content" → PowerPoint slides are completed
  • "Create an image for product introduction" → Image is generated
  • "Summarize the meeting minutes" → Meeting minutes are automatically created
  • "Turn this document into a video" → Video content is created

→ With ChatGPT, these tasks cannot be "completed with just instructions."
With Genspark, everything is completed within a single tool.

💡 What is the AI model "Claude"?

Claude is a high-performance AI model developed by Anthropic. Genspark allows you to select and use multiple AI models, including Claude (ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, etc.).

5-2. Tips for Saving Credits

To use the free plan for a long time, you need to devise ways to reduce credit consumption.

💡 Credit-Saving Technique: Differentiating "Secretary" and "Secretary's Office"

Secretary's Office (Super Chat): High credit consumption
- Give instructions to the Super Chat on the top page
- Slide creation, image generation, video creation, program execution, etc.
- Uses Sandbox, AI Drive
- Engine is Claude only

Secretary (AI Chat): Low credit consumption
- AI Chat at the bottom of the top page
- Conceptualization, consultation, research
- Simple text creation, idea generation
- ChatGPT, Gemini also available in addition to Claude

→ By doing conceptualization and research with the "Secretary (AI Chat)" and only using the "Secretary's Office (Super Chat)" for actual slide creation and image generation, you can use credits efficiently.

6. Two Working Environments: Sandbox and AI Drive

Genspark has two working environments: Sandbox and AI Drive.

In simple terms:
- Sandbox = AI agent's dedicated computer (for work)
- AI Drive = Cloud file server (for storage)

Item Sandbox AI Drive
Purpose Temporary workspace Permanent storage location
Environment AI agent's dedicated computer Cloud file server
Data Retention Deleted in a few hours Permanently saved
Access AI only (user needs to request) Both user and AI can freely access
Analogy Working desk Document storage cabinet

⚠️ Important: Files in the Sandbox will disappear!

Files in the Sandbox will be deleted in a few hours! Please be sure to save important files (completed slides, images, documents, etc.) to the AI Drive.

Examples of How to Use Them

  • Sandbox: Working files during slide creation, temporary files for image generation
  • AI Drive: Saving completed slides, images, documents

7. How the AI Agent System Works

Relationship between User, AI Agent, and AI Drive

Features of AI Agents

In Genspark, when you switch chat screens, a different AI agent (secretary) takes over.

⚠️ Important: Switching chat screens treats you as a different person

Content discussed in chat screen A is not conveyed to the agent in chat screen B.
If you want to continue working, either keep using the same chat screen or save important information to AI Drive for handover.
