About Peter
Peter Wilton Cushing was an English actor whose career spanned over six decades, during which he appeared in more than 100 films as well as numerous television, stage, and radio roles. Born in Kenley, Surrey, in 1913, he made his stage debut in 1935 and spent three years in repertory theatre before moving to Hollywood to pursue a film career. He made his film debut in The Man in the Iron Mask in 1939 and initially experienced modest success in American films. However, after returning to England at the start of World War II, he encountered difficulties in maintaining consistent work despite roles such as Osric in Laurence Olivier's Hamlet. His career was revitalized through appearances in live television plays, which made him a recognizable figure in British television. Cushing gained renowned recognition for his work in horror films produced by Hammer Studio, notably for his performances as Baron Frankenstein in six of their seven Frankenstein films and as Doctor Van Helsing in five Dracula films. Throughout his time with Hammer, he often collaborated with Christopher Lee, forming one of the most notable acting partnerships in horror cinema. Beyond horror, Cushing played diverse roles including Dr. Who in the 1960s film adaptations and appeared as Sherlock Holmes in several productions. His role as Grand Moff Tarkin in the 1977 film Star Wars further established his international fame. Cushing continued acting into the early 1990s, also authoring two autobiographies, and is remembered for his contributions to horror, science fiction, and classic cinema.

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.
