Telarix, Inc. was founded in 1996 to provide cost management solutions to telecommunications service providers in order to reconcile bills, perform usage audits, and gain visibility into their costs and develop routing techniques to reduce those costs. The company created a unified software product called iXTools^® which encompass wholesale functions under one data warehouse and database. iXTools^® was born when Telarix started developing into the selling side of wholesale, where traffic flows were measured and the profit/ loss of buying and selling activity was accurately calculated.
