About Robert
Robert Smalls was an American politician born into slavery in Beaufort, South Carolina, in 1839. During the American Civil War, he commandeered a Confederate transport ship in Charleston Harbor while still enslaved, sailing it from Confederate-controlled waters to the Union blockade. He then piloted the ship to the Union-controlled Beaufort–Port Royal–Hilton Head area, where it was incorporated as a Union warship. In doing so, Smalls freed himself, his crew, and their families. His actions and influence played a role in persuading President Abraham Lincoln to accept Black soldiers into the Union Army. After the Civil War, Smalls returned to Beaufort and entered politics as a Republican. He served in the South Carolina Legislature and the United States House of Representatives during Reconstruction. Smalls was instrumental in authoring legislation that established South Carolina's first free and compulsory public school system in the United States. Additionally, he was a founder of the Republican Party of South Carolina and was the last member of that party to represent South Carolina's 5th congressional district until 2010.

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.
