About Maria
Maria Corina Machado Parisca, born on October 7, 1967, is a Venezuelan politician and activist known for her leadership in the opposition to the governments of Hugo Chávez, Nicolás Maduro, and Delcy Rodríguez. She began her political career as a founder of the vote-monitoring organization Súmate and has served as a member of the Venezuelan National Assembly from 2011 to 2014. Machado is the National Coordinator of the political party Vente Venezuela and has been a candidate in presidential elections. She participated in the 2012 opposition primary, which she did not win, and played a prominent role in organizing protests during the 2014 Venezuelan protests against Maduro's government. In 2023, she won the opposition primary to become the unity candidate for the 2024 presidential election; however, she was disqualified from running due to administrative and fiscal violations from her time as a legislator, a disqualification upheld by Venezuela’s Supreme Tribunal of Justice. Following the election, she expressed fears for her safety, went into hiding, and accused the Maduro government of election fraud. Machado has been recognized internationally for her activism, including being named one of BBC's 100 Women in 2018 and listed among Time magazine's 100 most influential people in 2025. She was awarded the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize and the Sakharov Prize in 2024 for her efforts in representing Venezuelans fighting for democracy. She was also awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2025, and she presented the medal to U.S. president Donald Trump after the 2026 U.S. strikes in Venezuela and the capture of Maduro.

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.
