About Spike
Shelton Jackson Spike Lee, born on March 20, 1957, is an American filmmaker and actor recognized as one of the most significant filmmakers of the late 20th century. His work often explores topics such as race relations, issues within the black community, the role of media in contemporary life, urban crime, and poverty. Lee studied filmmaking at Morehouse College and New York University Tisch School of the Arts. During his studies, he directed the student film Joe's Bed-Stuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads, which received a Student Academy Award. He operates the production company 40 Acres and a Mule Filmworks, through which he has produced over 35 films, including his own directorial projects. Lee made his debut with the comedy She's Gotta Have It in 1986 and gained widespread recognition with the drama Do the Right Thing in 1989, which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay. His subsequent works include Malcolm X, which was nominated for the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival, and BlacKkKlansman, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay and the Cannes Film Festival Grand Prix. Lee's filmography also encompasses titles such as School Daze, Mo' Better Blues, Jungle Fever, Crooklyn, Clockers, Bamboozled, 25th Hour, Inside Man, Chi-Raq, Da 5 Bloods, and Highest 2 Lowest. In addition to directing, he has acted in eleven of his films and directed acclaimed documentary projects including 4 Little Girls, which was nominated for an Academy Award.

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.
