About Rufus
Rufus McGarrigle Wainwright, born on July 22, 1973, is a Canadian and American singer, songwriter, and composer. Throughout his career, he has recorded eleven studio albums, contributed numerous tracks to compilations and film soundtracks, and composed classical works including two operas. He has also set Shakespeare's sonnets to music for a theatre piece created by Robert Wilson. Wainwright's debut album, which was self-titled, was released through DreamWorks Records in May 1998. He followed with the album Poses in June 2001 and released Want One and Want Two in 2003 and 2004 respectively, which were later combined into a double album in 2005. His subsequent albums include Release the Stars in 2007, Rufus Does Judy at Carnegie Hall as his first live album, Milwaukee at Last in 2009, All Days Are Nights: Songs for Lulu in 2010, and Out of the Game in 2012. In 2015, he released Prima Donna, a double album of his opera of the same name. His ninth studio album, Take All My Loves: 9 Shakespeare Sonnets, came out in 2016, followed by Unfollow the Rules in 2020 and Folkocracy in 2023. Wainwright is part of a musical family; he is the son of musicians Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle, brother to singer Martha Wainwright, and has familial ties to other notable singer-songwriters and writers, including Sloan Wainwright, Anna McGarrigle, and Loudon Wainwright Jr.

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.
