About Gary
Gary Taubes, born on April 30, 1956, is an American journalist and writer known for his advocacy of a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet. His work focuses on the idea that carbohydrates, particularly sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, overstimulate insulin secretion. He asserts that this process promotes fat storage in fat cells and the liver and suggests that high dietary carbohydrate intake is a primary factor behind obesity and metabolic conditions associated with the syndrome. Taubes has authored several books, including Nobel Dreams, Bad Science, Good Calories Bad Calories, Why We Get Fat, The Case Against Sugar, and The Case for Keto. His publications explore and challenge conventional scientific and popular viewpoints on diet and health. His theories oppose the common narrative that obesity results mainly from overeating and lack of exercise. Additionally, he disputes the idea that saturated fats from animal products contribute significantly to cardiovascular disease. His work has been influential in discussions about diet, nutrition, and metabolic health, often advocating for reconsideration of established dietary guidelines.

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.
