About Candace
Candace Nicole Parker, born on April 19, 1986, is an American former professional basketball player renowned as one of the greatest WNBA players of all time. She was selected as the first overall pick in the 2008 WNBA draft by the Los Angeles Sparks and played 13 seasons with the team, as well as time with the Chicago Sky and Las Vegas Aces. Throughout her career, Parker won a championship with each team and played a significant role in increasing the popularity of women's basketball. Her accomplishments include two Olympic gold medals and multiple individual awards such as two WNBA Most Valuable Player Awards, Rookie of the Year, and All-Star honors. Parker was the first woman to dunk in an NCAA tournament game during her college career at Tennessee, where she led the team to two national championships and earned recognition as a leading player nationally. Beyond her contributions on the court, she has been a prominent figure in sports endorsements, signing long-term deals with Adidas and Gatorade. Since 2018, Parker has worked as an analyst and commentator for TNT Sports, providing coverage of NBA games and NCAA tournaments. Her influence and achievements extend into her recognition by Hall of Fame honors, with her induction into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame and the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame scheduled for 2026. Following her retirement in spring 2024, she was appointed president of Adidas women’s basketball, continuing her impactful presence in the sport both on and off the court.

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.
