About Sam
Samuel Harris Altman, born April 22, 1985, is an American entrepreneur and investor recognized for his leadership in the field of artificial intelligence. He has been serving as the chief executive officer of OpenAI since 2019. Altman attended Stanford University for two years before dropping out to co-found Loopt, a smartphone geosocial networking application. Loopt was acquired by Green Dot Corporation in March 2012 for 43.4 million dollars. In 2011, he joined Y Combinator, a startup accelerator and venture capital firm, and later served as its president from 2014 to 2019. Altman is a billionaire with investments in various companies and projects, including Reddit, Worldcoin, Helion Energy, and Instacart. As co-founder of OpenAI in 2015, he has played a key role in advancing artificial intelligence and supervised significant initiatives such as the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022. His prominence in the AI sector has made him a notable figure in technology and innovation. In 2023, Altman experienced a temporary ousting from his role at OpenAI due to disagreements with the organization's board regarding transparency. The decision was met with considerable backlash from employees and investors, leading to his reinstatement five days later and the establishment of a new board to better support his leadership.

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.
