playmeo’s Biggest Update in 14 Years – Launching Soon*

By
Experiential Trainer, Author & Speaker

playmeo’s new platform launches on Thursday, 4 June* – and it’s the biggest update we’ve ever made.

A new-look interface designed specifically for small screens, an AI assistant that builds programs in seconds, a content hub built from nearly 40 years of practical facilitation experience, and a restructured search engine that’s designed to fit how facilitators actually work today.

If you’ve been thinking about subscribing to playmeo for a while, keep reading – there’s a one-off offer below that closes the moment we launch.

* our launch schedule had to change due to a significant health setback experienced last week by one of our team. As soon as we have a realistic timeline, we’ll announce it here.

What’s Launching

playmeo will continue to be your home for interactive group games & activities. The Lazy Facilitator approach is the philosophy that will shape how we build everything you’ll see in the new platform: low effort, high impact strategies and designed by facilitators, for facilitators.

Click play below to get a quick & personal sneak peek of what’s coming.

Flow AI

This is the headline feature. Flow AI is an intelligent assistant that:

  • Builds complete programs in seconds
  • Adapts activities to suit your group
  • Generates debrief questions on the fly
  • Sequences before/after activities so your session has a natural arc.

It’s like having a programming assistant in your pocket when you need them.

It’s the tool I wish I’d had years ago – and it lives inside every Pro and Mentor subscription (see below.)

The Lazy Rating System

Every activity in playmeo’s database now carries a Lazy Rating between 1 and 5, telling you at a glance how much effort it’ll take to set up and deliver.

Low-prep options are now genuinely easy to find – exactly when you need them most.

How Lazy Ratings Work

The Lazy Facilitator Playbook

A content hub drawn from nearly 40 years of field-tested experience, featuring four sections:

  • Facilitation Fundamentals
  • Practical Strategies
  • Tools & Resources
  • Insights & Inspiration

In short, the Playbook covers the questions facilitators actually ask, with answers shaped by real experience.

New Mobile-First Interface

We’ve rebuilt the platform from the ground up – designed mobile-first, because that’s where most of you are when you need playmeo.

Lightning-fast, app-like, and easier to navigate than ever, whether you’re on a phone in the field or a laptop at your desk.

Limited Time Offer (Before We Launch)

Once we go live on 4 June*, the new Annual Pro plan will be $167/year to reflect the value we have invested in the platform.

But for the next nine days only, you can subscribe to Annual Pro at the current rate of only $108 – and on launch day, you’ll automatically gain access to everything above (Flow AI, the Lazy Facilitator Playbook, the Lazy Rating system, and all the productivity tools) at no extra cost until the anniversary of your plan (12 months away!)

That’s a SAVING of $59 – and full access to the new platform from the moment it goes live.

If you’ve been thinking about subscribing, now is the time.

Subscribe to Annual Pro & SAVE

After 4 June*, this rate is “gawn” (as my son would say.)

It’s a one-off offer tied to the launch – we won’t be running it again.

* as explained above, as soon as we have a realistic timeline, we’ll announce it here.

New Subscription Plans

Once we launch, playmeo’s plans will be structured with six plans to choose from – pick the one that fits how you work best:

  • Essentials Monthly (NEW) – $19/month. Full access to all 540+ activities, videos, and basic search tools.
  • Essentials Annual – $97/year. Everything in Essentials, billed yearly (save 58%.)
  • Pro Monthly – $29/month. Everything in Essentials, plus Flow AI, the Lazy Facilitator Playbook, the Lazy Rating system, and all the productivity tools (downloads, playlists, likes, etc.)
  • Pro Annual – $167/year. Everything in Pro, billed yearly. Best value (save 52%.)
  • Mentor Monthly (NEW) – $297/month. Everything in Pro, plus monthly 1:1 coaching calls with me (Mark Collard.)
  • Enterprise Annual – from $390/year for 10 users. Team access to Essentials-level features, scaled across larger groups.

If you’re already a subscriber, look for an email in your inbox that covers exactly what’s changed for you.

The short version: nothing significant changes on launch day, and any price changes take effect at your next renewal. Most existing subscribers don’t need to do anything at all.

Questions?

If anything here is unclear, or you’d like to ask about your specific situation, get in touch – every message comes straight to me.

We’re nine days out. I can’t wait to show you what we’ve built.
