About Pat
Patrick Joseph Quinn born December 16, 1948, in Chicago, Illinois, is an American politician who served as the 41st governor of Illinois from 2009 to 2015. A member of the Democratic Party, Quinn began his career as a political activist, founding the Coalition for Political Honesty, an organization focused on citizen-initiated referendums advocating political reform. He demonstrated early involvement in Illinois politics through efforts such as the 1976 Political Honesty Initiative and the 1980 Cutback Amendment, which reduced the size of the Illinois House of Representatives and marked the first time Illinois voters utilized the initiative process for constitutional amendments or laws. Quinn served as a commissioner on the Cook County Board of Tax Appeals from 1982 to 1986 and as Illinois Treasurer from 1991 to 1995. His political career also included roles as revenue director under Chicago Mayor Harold Washington and runs for statewide office such as secretary of state, United States senator, and lieutenant governor. In 2002, Quinn was elected as lieutenant governor alongside gubernatorial candidate Rod Blagojevich and was reelected in 2006. He assumed the governorship on January 29, 2009, following Blagojevich's impeachment and removal from office. During his time as governor, Quinn focused on reforms including ethics legislation, expanded healthcare coverage, and social legislation such as the legalization of civil unions and same-sex marriage. He also implemented the Put Illinois to Work program, the Illinois Secure Choice retirement savings initiative, and abolished the death penalty. Quinn lost his bid for re-election in 2014 and subsequently ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic nomination for Illinois attorney general in 2018.

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.
