The Transparent Intro Flow.
Sparki replaces opaque freelancer hand-offs with a deterministic, six-stage protocol. Every expert pod moves through identity, purpose, role, boundaries, next steps, and completion — before day one.
01Identity
Verified credentials, track record, and domain fit for every pod member.
02Purpose
Pod and company align on challenge scope, success criteria, and constraints.
03Role
Each member's responsibilities, deliverables, and decision rights are explicit.
04Boundaries
IP ownership, NDA, communication protocol, and escalation paths set in writing.
05Next steps
Allowed actions, milestones, and review gates defined before the sprint starts.
06Completion
Safety review and handoff protocol — observed behavior recorded on the trust ledger.
Why it's defensible
The flow is patent-pending and produces a behavioral trust ledger that compounds with every collaboration. Combined with the vetted expert network and enterprise trust layer, it forms a four-layer moat no horizontal marketplace can replicate.
