I think your issue is frame design, not frame material.
The Foil is aero racing bike. It's designed to be fast, with comfort not being the highest priority Most frames designed in that category, by that nature tend to be less vertically compliant, than more traditional carbon fiber frame.
There are a number of CF frames that you would likely find more comfortable, such as a Trek Domane, or a Specialized Roubaix. Een going to just a more traditional designed frame would likely give a more compliant ride.
And there are a number of options now, where CF composite frames have added elements to the layup to add comfort, such as the speed save in the Cdale EVO, and the SEI films in various Wilier's.
And all that said, drop 10lbs of tire pressure and your Foil, and it will make as big of difference as buying a new frame.
If you have the clearance you might consider going to 25mm tires, and dropping pressure.
