About autism.place
Helping families find places and moments that work
Our Mission
autism.place was created by parents, for parents navigating the challenges of finding autism-friendly venues and activities. We know firsthand how exhausting it can be to research whether a museum has quiet hours, if a restaurant tolerates longer wait times, or if a park has sensory-friendly equipment.
Our platform brings together parent-verified information about venues, real-time occupancy predictions through our Go Now™ meter, and small-group meetups designed specifically for autistic children and their families.
We believe every family deserves to explore their community with confidence, knowing they'll find understanding, accommodations, and support wherever they go.
What We Offer
Venue Directory
Searchable database of autism-friendly venues with detailed information about amenities, sensory hours, and potential triggers.
Go Now™ Meter
Smart occupancy predictions help you plan visits during quieter times, reducing sensory overload and improving predictability.
Micro-Events
Small group meetups capped at 12 kids, hosted at verified venues. Build community without overwhelming social demands.
How It Works

Check Go Now Meter
Our predictive meter shows whether venues are likely to be Quiet, Moderate, or Busy based on time of day, day of week, and historical patterns.
