About Gretchen
Gretchen Esther Whitmer, born on August 23, 1971, is an American lawyer and politician who has served as the 49th governor of Michigan since 2019. She is a member of the Democratic Party and has a long history of public service in Michigan. Whitmer's political career includes service in the Michigan House of Representatives from 2001 to 2006 and in the Michigan Senate from 2006 to 2015. She was the first female Democratic leader of the Michigan Senate, serving from 2011 to 2015. Whitmer was born in Lansing and raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan. She earned a bachelor's degree in communication from Michigan State University in 1993 and a Juris Doctor degree in 1998. She began her political career in 2000 when she was elected to the Michigan House of Representatives, and in 2006, she won a special election to the state senate. In 2013, she gained national attention for a speech during a debate on abortion, in which she shared her experience of being sexually assaulted. Additionally, Whitmer served as the prosecutor for Ingham County for six months in 2016. As governor, she has focused on healthcare and infrastructure legislation. In February 2020, she was chosen to deliver the Democratic response to President Donald Trump's State of the Union Address. Her tenure has included addressing security threats, such as thwarting a kidnapping plot by a far-right militia group in October 2020. From January 2021 to February 2025, she served as a vice chair of the Democratic National Committee. Whitmer was reelected as governor in 2022, defeating Republican candidate Tudor Dixon.

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.
