About Mary

Mary Edwards Walker (November 26, 1832 – February 21, 1919) was an American abolitionist, prohibitionist, surgeon, and a pioneering figure in women's rights. She earned her medical degree from Syracuse Medical College in 1855 and subsequently established a medical practice. Walker attempted to join the Union Army at the start of the Civil War but was initially turned away. She later served as a surgeon at a temporary hospital in Washington, D.C., before being hired by Union forces and assigned to the Army of the Cumberland and the 52nd Ohio Infantry. She became the first female surgeon in the United States Army. During the conflict, she crossed enemy lines to treat wounded civilians and was captured by Confederate forces, leading to her arrest as a spy. She was held as a prisoner of war in Richmond, Virginia, until her release through a prisoner exchange. For her efforts in treating battle wounded both on and off the battlefield, she was awarded the Medal of Honor, making her the only woman to receive the medal and one of only eight civilians to do so. Her name was removed from the Medal of Honor roll in 1917 but was reinstated in 1977. After the war, Walker engaged in writing and lecturing to support women’s suffrage. Her career and activism marked significant contributions to both military history and the advancement of women's rights.

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.
