About Christopher
Christopher Mark Luxon, born on 19 July 1970, is a New Zealand politician and businessman who has served as the 42nd prime minister of New Zealand since 2023. A member of the National Party, he has been the member of Parliament for Botany since 2020 and previously served as leader of the Opposition from 2021 to 2023. Before entering politics, Luxon was the chief executive officer of Air New Zealand from 2013 to 2019. He grew up in Howick in East Auckland and studied commerce at the University of Canterbury. Luxon joined Unilever in 1993 and held senior roles at Unilever Canada, eventually becoming president and CEO of the subsidiary in 2008. In 2011, he left Unilever Canada to join Air New Zealand as group general manager before becoming CEO in 2013. After stepping down as CEO in 2019, Luxon secured pre-selection for the safe National Party seat of Botany. He was elected as party leader unopposed on 30 November 2021, following the ousting of his predecessor. Luxon led the National Party to a plurality of seats in the 2023 general election and formed a coalition government with ACT New Zealand and New Zealand First. He was sworn in as prime minister on 27 November 2023. As prime minister, Luxon’s government has implemented various policies including tax cuts, healthcare expenditure adjustments, and changes to water management initiatives. His government has also increased military spending and enhanced Five Eyes cooperation amidst a broader foreign policy shift toward the United States. His coalition leadership has been characterized by some controversy, particularly regarding his relationships with deputy prime ministers Winston Peters and David Seymour.

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.
