About John
Marion Robert Morrison, known professionally as John Wayne and nicknamed 'Duke', was an American actor recognized as an iconic figure of the old West. Born in Winterset, Iowa, and raised in Southern California, he began his acting career with small roles after working for the Fox Film Corporation. His breakthrough came with the leading role in Raoul Walsh's Western film The Big Trail in 1930, although it was a box-office failure. Throughout the 1930s, Wayne starred in numerous B movies, primarily Westerns, which helped establish his presence in Hollywood. His career skyrocketed with his role in John Ford's Stagecoach in 1939, which catapulted him to mainstream stardom. Over his extensive career spanning from the silent film era through the American New Wave in the 1970s, Wayne appeared in 179 film and television productions. He was among the top box-office draws for three decades and collaborated with many prominent Hollywood stars of his era. Wayne is often remembered for embodying the frontier heritage of the nation through roles in notable Westerns such as Red River, The Searchers, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, and True Grit, the latter of which earned him the Academy Award for Best Actor. His diverse filmography also includes works like The Quiet Man, Rio Bravo, and The Longest Day. Wayne's final role was in The Shootist in 1976, portraying an aging gunfighter. He made his last public appearance at the Academy Awards in 1979 and passed away shortly thereafter from stomach cancer. In 1980, he was posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

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.
