About Tom
Tom Crean was an Irish seaman and Antarctic explorer who participated in three major expeditions during the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration. His expeditions included Robert Falcon Scott's 1911–1913 Terra Nova Expedition and Ernest Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. Crean's notable achievements included a solo 35-mile walk across the Ross Ice Shelf to rescue Edward Evans during the Terra Nova Expedition, for which he was awarded the Albert Medal for Lifesaving. His experiences on the expeditions demonstrated remarkable endurance and bravery. Crean joined the Royal Navy at age 16 after leaving the family farm near Annascaul in County Kerry. His exploration career commenced in 1901 when he volunteered for Scott's Discovery Expedition to Antarctica while serving aboard the vessel Ringarooma in New Zealand. During the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition, Crean was part of the crew that endured 492 days on drifting ice after the Endurance was trapped and sank in the pack ice. He participated in the small-boat journey of approximately 800 nautical miles from Elephant Island to South Georgia Island to seek aid for stranded crew members. After retiring from the navy in 1920 due to health reasons, Crean ran the South Pole Inn in County Kerry with his family. He passed away in 1938, leaving a legacy as one of the notable explorers of his time.

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.
