Notable: frontier-lab developer (Google). Launched 2026-05-19 running 'on Gemini 3.5' with the Antigravity harness; Google's 2026-08-13 Gemini 3.7 Flash post says Spark 'will be using Gemini 3.7 Flash starting today'. The current Gemini help page heads it 'Gemini Spark (now called Task)' and says 'Since May, we've been testing Spark in beta' — access set to 'ga' on that basis, but Google has not published a rename/GA announcement; the 'What's new for Gemini Spark' page (to 2026-07-17) does not mention a rename. Help page also says the user can change Gemini model from the model menu. Relationship to the Nov 2025 'Gemini Agent' (agent mode) is not stated anywhere I found. Google's Gemini Apps Privacy Hub (updated 2026-10-23) calls it 'Tasks in Gemini (formerly known as Spark)'.
