About Betty
Betty Friedan (February 4, 1921 – February 4, 2006) was an American feminist writer and activist recognized as a leading figure in the women's movement in the United States. Her 1963 book The Feminine Mystique is credited with sparking the second wave of American feminism. Friedan co-founded the National Organization for Women in 1966 and served as its first president, aiming to foster full and equal partnership between women and men within American society. In 1970, after stepping down from her role at NOW, she organized the Women's Strike for Equality, which drew over 50,000 participants in New York City alone and helped broaden the feminist movement. The following year, she helped establish the National Women's Political Caucus and was a supporter of the proposed Equal Rights Amendment, which passed both houses of Congress with strong bipartisan support. Friedan also founded the National Association for the Repeal of Abortion Laws, though she later expressed criticism of certain abortion-centered positions held by some liberals. Throughout her career, she remained engaged in politics and advocacy, authoring six books and voicing critiques of extremism and polarization within feminism. Widely regarded as an influential intellectual, Friedan's work and leadership contributed significantly to advancing women's rights and shaping public discourse on gender equality.

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.
