Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Foleon is a well-established B2B SaaS platform (founded 2013) generating estimated annual revenue of $12-15M with ~130 employees, significantly larger than the 'HackerNoon' baseline. While the submission itself contained inaccuracies (claiming 'most people' use it and '350' employees) and confused market cap with revenue, external verification confirms strong product-market fit, substantial verified traction, and a solid position in the interactive content market. The score reflects high real-world utility and traction, dampened by a poor quality submission and a 'scale-up' maturity phase.

Description
Foleon is a content platform that makes it easy for anyone to create engaging digital content without sacrificing brand quality. With Foleon's intuitive drag-and-drop editor, you can create anything from magazines and brochures to sales proposals, customer onboarding content, and that all-important internal comms newsletter. Organizations are still wasting time, money, and energy publishing their most valuable content in ineffective legacy formats. PDFs are a headache to produce, a bore to read, and totally void of reader insights. Foleon's built-in analytics show how audiences interact with your content on a page-by-page basis. You can rely on more data than just the number of downloads to make better decisions. Founded in Amsterdam with locations in the US and Europe, Foleon is on a mission to empower companies to create content that counts.
