About Chris
Christian Smalls, born on July 4, 1988, is an American labor organizer and activist known for his leadership in organizing Amazon workers in Staten Island. He is a co-founder and the former president of the Amazon Labor Union. Smalls grew up in New Jersey and initially pursued a career as a rapper, touring briefly with Meek Mill before transitioning to work in the service industry and warehouses to support his children. He joined Amazon in 2015. In March 2020, Smalls organized a walkout at the Amazon JFK8 warehouse to protest inadequate safety measures related to COVID-19. He was terminated on the same day for violating social distancing policies, a decision that drew criticism from government officials and led to lawsuits alleging unlawful termination. Following his dismissal, Smalls founded the Congress of Essential Workers, a worker-activist group that supported the formation of the Amazon Labor Union in April 2021. Under his leadership, the union successfully held a vote to organize the JFK8 warehouse in April 2022. Smalls was recognized as one of Time magazine's most influential people in 2022. Despite his prominence, leadership of the ALU was fielded amid challenges including two failed NLRB votes, and he did not seek reelection, being replaced by Connor Spence in July 2024.

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.
