About David
David Joel Stern (September 22, 1942 – January 1, 2020) was an American lawyer and business executive who served as the commissioner of the National Basketball Association from 1984 to 2014. During his tenure, he oversaw the growth of NBA basketball into one of the world's most popular sports and expanded the league's global reach through initiatives such as international training camps, exhibition games, and recruiting international players. Under his leadership, the NBA established offices in multiple countries and broadcast in over 40 languages across more than 200 territories. Stern also played a key role in founding the Women's National Basketball Association and the NBA G League, the league’s development league. In addition, he facilitated the NBA’s digital expansion through platforms such as NBA.com, NBA TV, and NBA League Pass, and established the NBA Cares social responsibility program. Stern's career in the NBA began in 1966 as an outside counsel; he later served as general counsel and then as executive vice president before being appointed commissioner. He retired in 2014 after more than three decades in the role, the longest tenure of any commissioner in major North American sports leagues at that time. His contributions to basketball earned him induction into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and the FIBA Hall of Fame. Outside of his work with the NBA, Stern was involved in educational and cultural organizations, serving on the Rutgers University Board of Overseers, being a Director of Jazz at Lincoln Center, and holding positions at Columbia University and the Council on Foreign Relations.

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.
