Interfolio Revenue and Competitors

Since 1999, Interfolio has been the best way to collect, manage, and showcase academic and professional credentials for applications to positions in higher education, post-graduate study, and other opportunities. Interfolio offers individuals one central place to store their most important documents, while also providing the means to distribute these materials to thousands of institutions across the county. Interfolio's services offer a revolutionary way for people to market themselves professionally. The idea for the company was the result of an award-winning business plan developed by Steve Goldenberg while he was a student at Georgetown University. Having worked in the school's Career Services Office, Steve saw an opportunity to offer students a better way to promote academic and professional achievements. His business plan won the Philip's Publishing Award for Excellence in Entrepreneurship, and he first presented his concept to career centers at the 1999 Eastern Association of Colleges and Employers (EACE) annual conference. Goldenberg used the feedback received from conference attendees to build the first version of Interfolio later that year. Now, over 90,000 users from around the world access the Interfolio system, including individuals who use it to manage their documents and letter writers who use it to electronically upload letters of recommendation for their students and colleagues. Interfolio continues to use the feedback of advisors, students, letter writers and receiving institutions to develop the product to meet users' needs. Interfolio has also partnered with organizations that work with constituents who need document and credentials management including Inside Higher Ed. > Click here to login.
