Common Questions
Should I choose monthly or annual? If you’ll use playmeo regularly throughout the year – planning sessions across multiple terms, programs, or seasons – this annual plan gives you the best value at 58% savings. If you only need playmeo occasionally or want to try it first, start with the Monthly Essentials plan.
Is Essentials enough for me? If you need reliable access to field-tested activities and want to build your facilitation repertoire, Essentials gives you everything you need. You’ll find activities, learn how to deliver them, and expand your skills. If you want AI-powered program building plus time-saving productivity tools, explore the Monthly Pro or Annual Pro plan.
Can I upgrade later? Absolutely. Upgrade to Pro anytime to access Flow AI, productivity tools (Downloads, Favourites, Playlists), The Lazy Facilitator Playbook, and Lazy Rating search. Your upgrade takes effect immediately.
What’s not included in Essentials? The Essentials plan focuses on activity access and learning. You won’t have Flow AI program building, productivity tools, The Lazy Facilitator Playbook, or the Lazy Rating filter – those are available in Pro and above.
