The problem

Playground planning is slow, fragmented, and expensive.

Designers juggle dozens of catalogues. Sales teams wait days for concepts. Tenders eat weeks. And nobody has a single source of truth for what's actually available, compliant and in budget.

⏱️

Hours per concept

The average playground design takes 8+ hours of skilled time. Multiply that across every quote and every revision.

📚

Dozens of catalogues

Major manufacturers carry thousands of products each. No designer can keep up with what's available across the industry.

📋

Tender overload

Tender packs are repetitive, manual and risky. Specs, drawings and compliance docs are rebuilt from scratch every time.

Built for the whole industry

One platform. Three workflows.

Whether you specify, procure or supply, Park Plan removes the friction between you and a great playground.

These are the features we're working towards. Join our waitlist now and help shape the platform into exactly what you need.

Founder & CEO
Founder, Rhino Play Standards Australia Committee CS005 (8 years) Lead author, SA HB 244:2025 (Giant Tube Slides) 30+ years industry

Built by someone who's lived the problem.

Ryan founded Rhino Play and grew it into one of Australia's leading playground suppliers, exiting fully in 2025 after a 30-year career in the industry.

He has served on Standards Australia Committee CS005 for playground equipment for eight years, and was the lead author of SA HB 244:2025 — Australia's new supplementary handbook to AS 4685.3:2021 for giant tube slides, the first guidance document of its kind globally. Park Plan is the platform he wished existed for the last three decades — built from the inside, with the standards, the supply chain and the design workflow already in his bones.
