About Tom

Thomas Edgar Wheeler, born on April 5, 1946, is an American businessman and former government official. He served as the 31st Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, a role in which he was appointed by President Barack Obama and confirmed by the U.S. Senate in November 2013. As chairman, Wheeler was responsible for overseeing the regulatory agency that manages communications by cable, radio, television, satellite, and wireless services. Prior to his tenure at the FCC, he held significant positions within the telecommunications industry, including President of the National Cable & Telecommunications Association and CEO of the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association. Wheeler's background also includes work as a venture capitalist and lobbyist representing the cable and wireless industries, sectors that the FCC is tasked with regulating. His appointment as FCC chairman was consistent with the customary practice of resigning when a new presidential administration begins; he stepped down on January 20, 2017, succeeded by Ajit Pai. Throughout his career, Wheeler has been involved in both industry leadership and regulatory roles, shaping telecommunications policy and industry standards.

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.

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, plus $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.
