About James
James Burke (July 5, 1931 – April 13, 1996) was an American individual associated with organized crime and served as a Lucchese crime family member. He is known for allegedly organizing the 1978 Lufthansa heist, which was the largest cash robbery in American history at that time. Burke was believed to have been responsible for the deaths of several individuals involved in the aftermath of the robbery. In 1982, following the testimony of Henry Hill, he was convicted of conspiracy charges related to the Boston College basketball point-shaving scandal and received a 12-year prison sentence. While incarcerated, Burke was also convicted of murder and subsequently sentenced to an additional 20 years to life. He died of cancer at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, New York, twelve years before reaching the age of eligibility for parole. His life and criminal activities served as inspiration for the character Jimmy 'The Gent' Conway, portrayed by Robert De Niro in the 1990 film Goodfellas.

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.
