Executive pay decisions shape company performance — and company performance shapes executive pay. Semler Brossy brings boardroom-level insight to both sides of that equation. Each episode unpacks the real issues facing comp committees and management teams today: pay-for-performance design, CEO succession, incentive structures, and the governance pressures reshaping how companies pay their people. Straight talk from the advisors who sit in the room where these decisions get made.

Leadership Matters: Semler Brossy on People, Pay, and Performance
Board Oversight of Human Capital Management
Aug 27, 202636 minS0
<p>Human capital used to be a once-a-year discussion for boards, if they formally covered the topic at all. Now HCM issues are standing items on the board agenda — and AI is accelerating the need for these discussions even more. Semler Brossy's Blair Jones and Bertha Masuda join us to unpack how the comp committee's mandate has expanded to cover talent, culture, and workforce strategy, what the strongest boards do differently, why engagement surveys alone won't tell you where your culture needs to go, and how HCM oversight can be a key facet of emerging AI talent strategies.</p><p><br></p>

Designing Creative Incentives
Aug 12, 202637 minS0
<p>Austin Vanbastelaer, Managing Partner at Semler Brossy, joins the show to unpack how to design executive incentives when there's no template to follow — mid-transformation, pre-revenue, or in the middle of a high-stakes transaction. He shares real examples of creative award design, explains where proxy advisor frameworks fall short of good pay design in practice, and offers guidance for building incentive programs that stakeholders can comprehend, drive long-term value creation, and motivate the Board's desired behavior.</p><p><br></p>
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.
