      "content_text": "The average SMB uses over 100 SaaS tools, paying €10,000+ per year. 90% of features go unused, and your data is held hostage by vendors. There's a better way: custom AI-powered software you build once and own forever. At Spark AI, we replace your subscriptions with software tailored to your business — starting at just €100 for templates or €2,500 for fully custom builds.",

Spark AI builds local agents that run on YOUR infrastructure. No cloud dependency, no token limits, no recurring fees. One-time build cost, unlimited inference, full data sovereignty. The agent phase is here — and it runs locally.",
