About Bill

William Henry Gates III, born in 1955, is an American businessman and philanthropist known for co-founding Microsoft in 1975 alongside Paul Allen. A pioneer of the microcomputer revolution, Gates played a key role in the company's growth, serving as CEO for 25 years and later as chief software architect until 2008. He transitioned away from executive management to focus more on his philanthropic efforts. Gates is the co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the world's largest private charitable organization, which he led jointly with his then-wife, Melinda French Gates, from 2000 until 2024. His philanthropic work emphasizes health, education, and poverty alleviation, notably including efforts to combat diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria, and polio. Following his divorce from Melinda French Gates, the foundation was renamed the Gates Foundation, with Gates becoming its sole chair. Beyond his work with the foundation, Gates is the founder and chairman of various companies, including Cascade Investment, TerraPower, Gates Ventures, and Breakthrough Energy. In 2010, he and Warren Buffett established the Giving Pledge, encouraging billionaires to donate at least half of their wealth to philanthropy. Recognized as one of the most influential people of the 20th century by Time magazine and awarded honors including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, Gates has also been the subject of documentary films and published memoirs detailing his life and career.

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.
