About Carol
Carol Graham, born on January 29, 1962, is a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, where she holds the Leo Pasvolsky Chair. She is also a professor at the School of Public Policy at the University of Maryland, College Park, and a research fellow at the Institute for the Study of Labor. Graham has authored numerous books, papers, and edited volume chapters, establishing herself as an expert on a variety of issues including poverty, inequality, insecurity, the political economy of market reforms, subjective well-being, and the economics of happiness. Her work explores the determinants of happiness within and across countries at different levels of development, often revealing counterintuitive relationships. Her notable books include Happiness around the World: the Paradox of Happy Peasants and Miserable Millionaires, published by Oxford University Press in 2010 and translated into several languages. Her latest book, The Pursuit of Happiness: An Economy of Well-Being, published by the Brookings Institution Press in 2011, investigates how new science and metrics of well-being can influence policy and serve as benchmarks for economic progress. Graham's research has been supported by various organizations including the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the World Bank, and the National Institute of Aging. She has served on a National Academy of Sciences Panel on well-being metrics and public policy and received the Distinguished Research Fellow Award from the International Society for Quality of Life Studies in 2014.

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.
