About James
James Arthur Ray was an American self-help businessman, motivational speaker, and author. Born on November 22, 1957, he became known for his involvement in motivational seminars and New Age retreats. Ray appeared on various television programs including CNN's Larry King Live, the Today Show, and Oprah. He was also one of the narrators in the film The Secret. Ray's career faced significant controversy after three participants died in October 2009 during a ritual at one of his retreats. He was arrested in 2010 and subsequently convicted in 2011 of three counts of negligent homicide for causing the deaths through negligence. Ray served two years in an Arizona state prison and was released under supervision in July 2013. Despite the legal issues, he re-launched his self-help business following his release. Ray's background included time as a telemarketer, and he claimed to have worked for the Stephen Covey foundation, although there is no record of employment with the organization. His career was marked by both his motivational speaking engagements and the legal and ethical controversies surrounding his practices.

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.
