Folderly
2021
Product
Background: Folderly emerged from a critical pain point we experienced at Belkins - even the best sales emails are worthless if they land in spam. As we scaled our outreach for hundreds of clients, we realized existing deliverability solutions were either too complex or ineffective. This led to building Folderly, now the leading email deliverability platform trusted by enterprises worldwide.
Challenge:
20% of legitimate business emails never reach the inbox.
Complex and ever-changing spam filters across different email providers.
Lack of visibility into why emails land in spam folders.
No proactive tools to prevent deliverability issues before they occur.
Technical solutions that require extensive expertise to implement.
Solution:
AI-Powered Diagnostics: Built advanced algorithms that analyze all factors affecting deliverability - from domain reputation to content patterns - providing actionable insights in plain English.
Automated Remediation: Developed "email warm-up" technology that automatically improves sender reputation through intelligent interaction patterns with our network of real email accounts.
Real-Time Monitoring: Created dashboards that track deliverability across all major email providers, alerting users to issues before they impact campaigns.
One-Click Fixes: Simplified complex technical requirements into user-friendly actions, making enterprise-grade deliverability accessible to non-technical users.
Education Platform: Integrated learning resources and best practices directly into the platform, turning every user into a deliverability expert.
