Is Canada rushing headfirst into a bad U.S. trade deal?
Aug 19, 202615 min
Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the extended Canada-U.S. trade negotiations following President Trump's announcement of a potential deal. They examine why Prime Minister Carney may be rushing toward an agreement ahead of his September investment conference in Toronto, the concessions Canada might make on supply management and other issues, and whether any deal with Trump can be trusted given his history of shifting demands.

Eric Lombardi, Ontario Liberal leadership candidate and Hub contributor, discusses why he thinks Ontario is Canada’s "sick province" suffering from managed decline. He argues that large-L Liberals have abandoned small-l liberal principles like markets and merit and that his generation faces an unprecedented housing and affordability crisis. Lombardi presents his "abundance agenda"—building more housing and infrastructure, reforming health-care delivery, and reducing temporary migration—while defending against criticism that he's too conservative for the Liberal Party.

The trade deadline approaches fast—are more Trump tariffs coming?
Aug 17, 202615 min
Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer discuss the high-stakes negotiations Canada faces as the deadline for potential 50 percent tariffs from the U.S looms. They examine whether the sides remain far apart or if public positioning is strategic theatre, and the political calculations facing both Prime Minister Carney and President Trump. They also explore worst-case scenarios, including Canadian retaliatory tariffs and whether Canada should make major concessions or leverage Trump's political vulnerabilities heading into midterm elections amid broader geopolitical pressures.

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.
