About Ella

Ella Josephine Baker was an African-American civil rights and human rights activist whose career spanned over five decades. She was a behind-the-scenes organizer who worked with prominent civil rights leaders including W. E. B. Du Bois, Thurgood Marshall, A. Philip Randolph, and Martin Luther King Jr. Baker also mentored many emerging activists such as Diane Nash, Stokely Carmichael, and Bob Moses, particularly through her work with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. She advocated for grassroots organizing, radical democracy, and empowering oppressed communities to understand and advocate for themselves. Baker critiqued professionalized, charismatic leadership and emphasized the importance of the grassroots in social change. Her influence was especially significant during the 1960s when she served as the primary advisor and strategist for SNCC. Recognized by biographer Barbara Ransby as one of the most important American leaders of the twentieth century and potentially the most influential woman in the civil rights movement, Baker was known for her critiques of both racism within American society and sexism within the civil rights movement. Her efforts contributed significantly to shaping strategies for activism and advancing civil rights through community engagement and leadership development.

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.
