About Morgan
Morgan James McSweeney, born on 19 April 1977, is an Irish former political strategist known for his significant roles within the British Labour Party and the administration of Prime Minister Keir Starmer. He joined the Labour Party in 1997, motivated by a commitment to the Good Friday Agreement. Early in his career, he worked at Millbank and campaigned against the British National Party alongside other notable activists. McSweeney has conducted campaign work for Labour candidates and founded the Labour Together think tank. In 2020, he led Starmer's successful Labour leadership campaign and subsequently held multiple senior roles, including Labour's director of campaigns and campaign director during the 2024 general election, which resulted in a Labour victory. McSweeney was initially appointed Head of Political Strategy at 10 Downing Street and later became Prime Minister Starmer’s Chief of Staff in October 2024. His tenure in that position ended in February 2026 amid internal controversy related to his role in recommending Peter Mandelson's appointment as UK ambassador to the United States, following revelations about Mandelson's ties to Jeffrey Epstein. His resignation acknowledged that the decision was wrong and had harmed the party's reputation. Throughout his work with Starmer, McSweeney was credited with helping shift Labour towards the political centre and was influential in the party’s electoral successes. Despite facing allegations of factionalism and political briefings, Starmer publicly appreciated his contributions, including his involvement in the 2024 electoral landslide.

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.
