About Gary
Gary Dwayne Payton Sr. is an American former professional basketball player and Hall of Famer. He played in the National Basketball Association for 17 seasons, primarily with the Seattle SuperSonics, where he set franchise records in assists and steals. Known by the nickname “the Glove” for his defensive skills, Payton is considered one of the greatest point guards in the history of the sport. Throughout his career, he also played for the Milwaukee Bucks, Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, and Miami Heat. Payton made three NBA Finals appearances with the SuperSonics in 1996, the Lakers in 2004, and the Heat in 2006, winning the championship with the Heat that year. He was notably the first point guard to win the NBA Defensive Player of the Year award and held the distinction of being the only point guard to do so until Marcus Smart in 2022. His accolades include selection to nine All-NBA Teams, nine All-Defensive First Teams, and participation in multiple All-Star Games. Payton’s defensive prowess and versatility earned him a prominent place in basketball history. In 2013, he was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, and in 2021, he was named to the NBA 75th Anniversary Team, acknowledging his lasting impact on the game.

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.
