Our mission
Stability plus innovation
Moss and Spark means stability plus innovation. Moss is your proven foundation: the people, relationships, judgment, and trust that already make your business work. Spark is the AI, automation, and custom software that help that foundation move faster.
Moss
Your proven foundation
The stable, human-first core that helps your company thrive.
Spark
AI that moves you forward
Automation and AI innovation that reduce busywork without replacing your judgment.
We've spent 15 years inside the same industries our clients work in: environmental compliance, construction management, and engineering. We've sat through the spreadsheet chaos, the Monday morning scrambles for project status, the RFQs that slip through the cracks. That's why the tools we build actually fit. We're not outside consultants guessing at your workflow.
Our mission is to help human-first companies adopt AI confidently, using focused, dependable tools that preserve what makes their work valuable.
Featured work
Built for real workflows
Built by Moss & Spark
Rapid RUSLE
Erosion risk, automated.
Environmental consultants were spending hours per project on manual risk calculations. We built Rapid RUSLE to replace that process with a single web app: structured data entry, automated calculations, and audit-ready reports out the door.
Internal automation
Lead Intake Automation
From inquiry to CRM handoff.
We automated our own lead intake path so website inquiries are captured once, routed into HubSpot, forwarded through n8n, and tracked with attribution and portal visibility instead of manual copy-paste.
