About Nile
Nile Gregory Rodgers Jr. is an American guitarist and a co-founder of the band Chic. Born on September 19, 1952, he has contributed to records that have sold more than 750 million albums and 100 million singles worldwide. In 1972, he formed the band as the Big Apple Band with bassist Bernard Edwards. Chic's debut album in 1977 featured hit singles such as Dance, Dance, Dance and Everybody Dance. The 1978 album C'est Chic included the song Le Freak, which sold over seven million singles globally. The track Good Times from the 1979 album Risqué became a number one hit on both the pop and soul charts and is recognized as one of the most-sampled songs in music history. Rodgers collaborated closely with Edwards in writing and producing music for other artists. They produced notable songs including He's the Greatest Dancer and We Are Family for Sister Sledge and I'm Coming Out and Upside Down for Diana Ross. After the breakup of Chic in 1983, Rodgers continued his production work for various artists such as David Bowie, INXS, Duran Duran, and Madonna, among others. His collaborations extend to high-profile musicians including Kylie Minogue, Jeff Beck, Lady Gaga, and Beyoncé. Rodgers has received numerous awards, including three Grammys in 2014 for Daft Punk's Random Access Memories and two Grammys in 2023 for his work on Beyoncé's Renaissance. He is a member of the Songwriters Hall of Fame, has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award. Recognized for his charango guitar style, Rolling Stone ranked him seventh among the greatest guitarists of all time, and in 2026, he appeared on the New York Times list of the greatest living American songwriters.

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.
