About Simon
Sir Simon Richard Clarke is a British Conservative politician who served as the Member of Parliament for Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland from 2017 until 2024. During his time in office, he held several notable positions within the UK government, including Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities in 2022 and Chief Secretary to the Treasury from 2021 to 2022. Clarke was appointed Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury following Boris Johnson's appointment as Prime Minister and served as Minister of State for Regional Growth and Local Government from February to September 2020. In the 2021 cabinet reshuffle, he was appointed Chief Secretary to the Treasury, becoming the youngest cabinet minister in that department. After Boris Johnson's resignation in 2022, Clarke supported Liz Truss's bid to become Conservative leader. Following Truss's appointment as Prime Minister, he was appointed to his brief role as Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, which he held for 49 days before resigning prior to Rishi Sunak's accession to the Prime Ministership. Clarke is affiliated with the Tory think tank Onward. He lost his parliamentary seat in the general election held on 4 July 2024, narrowly defeated despite Reform UK not fielding a candidate.

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.
