About Alex
Alexander J Honnold, born on August 17, 1985, is an American rock climber renowned for his free solo ascents of large wall climbing routes. His achievements gained worldwide recognition in June 2017 when he became the first person to free solo an entire route on El Capitan in Yosemite National Park. This route, called Freerider, stretches 880 meters and is graded 5.13a; it was the first big-wall free-solo climb at that grade. The feat was described by The New York Times as one of the great athletic achievements of any kind. Honnold's climbing accomplishments also include winning a Piolet d'Or in 2015 alongside Tommy Caldwell for their completion of the Fitz Traverse in Patagonia, an enchainment of the Cerro Chaltén Group completed over five days. Additionally, he set a record on January 25, 2026, by free soloing the Taipei 101 tower in Taipei, Taiwan, which is the tallest building ever climbed in this manner and graded at approximately 5.11. Beyond his climbing pursuits, Honnold is affiliated with the Honnold Foundation. He authored the memoir Alone on the Wall in 2015 with David Roberts and was the subject of the 2018 documentary Free Solo, which received both an Academy Award and a BAFTA.

FAQs
Every question we get asked before
someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
