About Thomas
Thomas Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman known for his numerous innovations including the incandescent light bulb, phonograph, electric power distribution, and early motion pictures. He held 1093 patents and was instrumental in the formation of General Electric through the merger of several of his businesses and other companies. Edison was born in Milan, Ohio, and grew up in Michigan with limited formal schooling. After becoming deaf as a child, he learned through books and tinkering. He began working as a railroad telegrapher and soon started inventing improvements to telegraph systems. By age 22, he had sold early inventions and moved to New York City to focus on engineering. Edison established a telegraph recorder factory in Newark with over a hundred employees by age 29 and later developed the first industrial research laboratory at Menlo Park. Known as The Wizard of Menlo Park, he drove his staff hard while rapidly expanding his inventions and publicity. Edison's work on electrical lighting systems began in 1878, leading to the development of the modern electric grid. His efforts contributed to the creation of a vast network of light bulbs, generators, and distribution systems, which eventually led to the formation of General Electric. Edison also worked on a mining company, a cement business, and a motion picture studio, continually diversifying his interests. Despite health issues from exposure to toxic chemicals and ongoing battles with diabetes, he remained active in his pursuits until his death. His son Charles Edison succeeded him in business.

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.
