About Taj
The Taj Mahal is an imposing ivory-white marble mausoleum located on the right bank of the river Yamuna in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India. It was commissioned in 1631 by the fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, to serve as a tomb for his wife, Mumtaz Mahal, and also contains Shah Jahan's own mausoleum. The complex covers 17 hectares and includes a mosque, a guest house, and formal gardens enclosed by crenellated walls. Construction of the mausoleum was completed in 1648, with work on other parts of the complex continuing until 1653. The monument’s cost at the time was estimated at ₹32 million, equivalent to approximately ₹52.8 billion or US$827 million in 2015. The Taj Mahal showcases Indo-Islamic and Mughal architectural styles, characterized by symmetrical designs and the use of shapes and symbols. Its central structure is built from white marble inlaid with semi-precious stones, while red sandstone was employed for other buildings within the complex. The project involved over 20,000 workers and artisans guided by a board of architects led by Ustad Ahmad Lahori, the court architect for Shah Jahan. This diverse team of artisans included Ottoman, Persian, and Mughal specialists, among them design experts, calligraphers, casters, and masons. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983, the Taj Mahal is acclaimed as a masterpiece of Islamic art and Mughal architecture. It attracts more than five million visitors annually and was named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007. The monument and its grounds are classified as a monument of National Importance and administered by the Archaeological Survey of India.

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.
