Case Study: FounderLY halves load time and saves bandwidth with Cloudflare

FounderLY - Customer Case Study

FounderLY is an open-source media project that publishes weekly documentary-style interviews with entrepreneurs. Faced with a design-forward site heavy on images, CSS, JavaScript and video, the team needed fast global load times and resilience to traffic spikes while operating on a tight budget and limited engineering resources.

Enabling Cloudflare was quick and required no significant developer time, saving an estimated two weeks of engineering work. Cloudflare halved page load time (doubling perceived speed across Europe, Asia and the U.S.), saved 1,766,414 requests (66%) and 7.9 GB of bandwidth (36%), kept the site online during traffic surges, and let the team focus on their core product.
