Ayaan Hirsi Ali
About Ayaan
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Lady Ferguson, was born Ayaan Hirsi Magan on November 13, 1969, in the Somali Democratic Republic. She is a Somali-born Dutch-American writer, activist, conservative thinker, and former politician. Her early life included experiencing female genital mutilation organized by her grandmother, and her family moved across various countries in Africa and the Middle East. She received political asylum in the Netherlands at age 23 and acquired Dutch citizenship five years later. In her early 30s, Hirsi Ali renounced her childhood religious beliefs, identifying as an atheist, and became involved in Dutch centre-right politics as a member of the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy. She was elected to the lower house of the States General of the Netherlands in 2003. During her time in parliament, she collaborated on the film Submission with Theo van Gogh, which addressed women's oppression under fundamentalist Islamic law and was critical of the Muslim canon. The film's controversy and the subsequent murder of Van Gogh by Mohammed Bouyeri led Hirsi Ali into hiding and heightened her criticism of Islam. In 2005, she was named one of the 100 most influential people by Time magazine. Later moving to the United States, she joined the American Enterprise Institute, becoming a prominent writer, activist, and public intellectual. Her bestselling books include Infidel, Nomad, and Heretic. In 2023, she announced her conversion to Christianity. She is married to historian Niall Ferguson, and the couple raises their sons in the United States, where she became a citizen in 2013.

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.
