A monthly science fair for AI. Pick something. Try it. Share what you found. You don't need to be an expert — every curious mind is welcome.
New to ClearSPARK? Four steps. One month. Five minutes to present.
Anything AI-related. Work projects earn 2 bonus votes, but tinkering for fun is equally welcome. Solo or team — your call.
Give your project a distinct name separate from your team name. This is what appears on the voting ballot so people know what they're voting for.
Experiment! Fill out the Submission Form with your Project Name, Team Name, and Team Members. Submit to Ellie by October 23.
5 minutes at the all-hands. Show what you did, what you learned, and what surprised you. No polish required.

Present & Vote
5 min at the all-hands. Team votes. Winner announced.
ClearSPARK is our internal AI exploration program — a monthly, voluntary challenge where any team member can experiment with AI tools and share what they find.
No experience required. No sign-up needed. You don't even need to have tried an AI tool before. All it takes is a willingness to try something new.
Think of it as a science fair for AI. You have all month to explore, five minutes at the all-hands to present, and a shot at winning the monthly prize — chosen by your teammates. "Even if your experiment doesn't work out — a well-explained 'we tried this and here's why it flopped' is one of the most valuable presentations you can give."
Five simple rules. One month. Endless possibilities.
Join any month you're curious. No penalty for sitting out. Come back whenever inspiration strikes.
No commitmentSolo projects are equally welcome — any size, any combination. No minimum or maximum team size.
Any sizeTools, experiments, creative projects — anything goes. Bonus points if it connects to ClearFuze's work, clients, or operations.
Any AI tool5 minutes at the monthly staff meeting. What you tried, what you built, what surprised you. No polished demo required.
5 minutesAfter all presentations, every attendee casts one vote. Presenters can't vote for their own project. Most votes wins.
Popular voteProjects connected to ClearFuze clients, services, or operations earn a separate bonus commendation on top of any votes received.
