About John
John David McAfee (born September 18, 1945, died June 23, 2021) was a British and American computer programmer and businessman known for founding McAfee Associates, a company that produced the first commercial anti-virus software in 1987. He resigned from the company in 1994 and later became its most vocal critic, advocating for consumers to uninstall its software and disavowing ongoing use of his name in branding. McAfee was a two-time U.S. presidential candidate representing the Libertarian Party, running in 2016 and 2020, with a platform emphasizing privacy, personal freedom, and opposition to government surveillance. In addition to his work in cybersecurity, he founded multiple companies including Tribal Voice, QuorumEx, and Future Tense Central, and held leadership roles in others such as Everykey, MGT Capital Investments, and Luxcore. His personal and business interests spanned smartphone applications, cryptocurrency, yoga, light-sport aircraft, and recreational drug use. McAfee resided in Belize for several years before returning to the United States in 2013 amid legal issues related to suspicion of murder. His advocacy for libertarian principles extended into his legal challenges, which he framed as resistance to governmental overreach. In 2020, he was arrested in Spain on U.S. charges of tax evasion. McAfee was found dead in a Spanish prison cell in 2021, with his death ruled a suicide; however, there was speculation and controversy surrounding the circumstances of his death, with his wife expressing doubt that it was suicide.

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.
