About Spark
The AI engine for building energy infrastructure faster
Spark helps energy and data center developers find sites, read the community, and get permits — fast. We're a small team of technologists, developers, and mission-oriented builders committed to building the next generation of American infrastructure with smarter, faster technology.
Our mission
Regulatory complexity can make or break million-dollar projects. Zoning laws, permitting requirements, moratoria, and community sentiment are scattered across thousands of PDFs, maps, and websites in every US jurisdiction.
We build AI agents and workflow tools that aggregate all of it — and surface what matters in seconds instead of weeks — so developers can accelerate site selection, reduce development risk, and get more power on the grid.
Find sites
Screen thousands of locations against zoning, moratoria, and permitting requirements in seconds instead of weeks.
Read the community
Surface local sentiment, community meeting activity, and opposition signals before they become fatal flaws.
Get permitted
Map every state, local, and federal permit your project needs — and the path to getting each one.
Trusted by leading developers
Our customers include some of the nation's leading energy developers, with a combined 200+ GW in their pipelines. Today, we serve users working on everything from hyperscale AI development to community solar.
Our values
Act with urgency
Move with decisiveness and momentum. Do the right things now.
Extreme ownership
We take responsibility, fix problems, and own outcomes.
Seek truth
We practice intellectual rigor, challenge assumptions, and engage in honest debate and feedback, with respect for all voices.
