ParkPal: Family Park Finder

The AI-powered park finder for families. Ask anything, discover events, find the perfect park for your kids. Free.

Every parent knows the feeling...you want to get the kids outside, but you don't know which parks are safe, fun, and right for your child's age. ParkPal fixes that.

Built by a San Diego parent for a daughter named Portia, ParkPal is the only AI-powered park finder designed around what parents actually need.

MEET PARKPAL AI Ask anything in plain language — "what parks near me are good for a 1-year-old?" or "what free events are happening this weekend?" ParkPal AI finds parks, discovers local events and farmers markets, and learns your family's preferences over time. The more you use it, the better it gets.

FIND THE PERFECT PARK Search any park near you — works in every US city. From iconic destinations like Balboa Park to tiny neighborhood playgrounds. Every park Google Maps knows about is in ParkPal, including small local ones other apps miss.
