About Robert
Robert Albert Bloch was an American fiction writer born on April 5, 1917, and passed away on September 23, 1994. His literary work primarily focused on crime, psychological horror, and fantasy, with a smaller body of science fiction. Bloch's career spanned over 60 years and included more than 30 years in television and film, during which his stories were often adapted for radio, cinema, and television. He began his professional writing career immediately after graduating from high school at the age of 17. Bloch is best known for writing the novel Psycho in 1959, which served as the basis for the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock film of the same name. Throughout his career, he authored hundreds of short stories and over 30 novels, initially influenced by H. P. Lovecraft, who was a key figure in encouraging his talent. While he began emulating Lovecraft's cosmic horror, Bloch later specialized in crime and horror stories that often emphasized psychological elements. Early in his career, he contributed to pulp magazines such as Weird Tales, and he was also a prolific screenwriter and active in science fiction fandom and fanzines. Bloch received several accolades, including the Hugo Award, the Bram Stoker Award, and the World Fantasy Award. He served as president of the Mystery Writers of America in 1970 and was a member of multiple professional organizations. His essay The Shambles of Ed Gein was included in the Library of America's retrospective of American true crime in 2008. His notable works included The Kidnapper, The Star Stalker, Psycho, Night-World, and Strange Eons, many of which have been adapted into various media.

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?
