The data

How the intelligence is made

When a company adopts a vendor, it leaves signals it publishes itself. IXM reads those signals for millions of companies, every month.

Coverage

Coverage

Millions of companies across 225 countries, thousands of vendors, dozens of data points each, re-read every month. Every count is a floor. See the coverage, freshness and depth of the graph.

Method

How a relationship enters the graph

Before a vendor will send mail, sign documents or log users in, the company has to set it up on its own domain. That setup leaves public signals: proofs of ownership, service routing, delegations.

IXM reads those signals on a schedule, matches them to thousands of vendor signatures, grades each one and keeps first-seen and last-seen dates. Public signals only: no logins, no crawling, no people’s names or contact lists.

Confidence

Confidence grades

Grade Evidence Typical use
Verified A vendor-specific verification signal on the company's own domain Displacement lists, TAM counts, diligence
Strong The company routes a live service, such as mail, through the vendor Ecosystem targeting, ABM audiences
Inferred Secondary or historical evidence, or a signal last seen more than 90 days ago Enrichment, with a human check

Every export and API response carries the grade. Download a sample CSV (example data, real layout).

Limitations

What the data does not tell you

  • A signal proves a relationship exists. It does not show seat count, contract value or usage.
  • Signals can remain after a contract ends. Treat last-seen as an observation date, not a churn date.
  • Some vendors leave signals we cannot observe, so we under-count them and say so in the vendor catalogue.
  • A routing signal shows a vendor may act for the company. For marketing platforms that is strong evidence; for transactional relays it is weaker, and we grade accordingly.
  • Company resolution is automated and audited on a sample before each release. Report an error and we fix it in the next refresh.
  • first_seen is the date we first observed a signal. For relationships that existed before our first observation, it is the date of that first crawl, not the date the company adopted the vendor.
  • One company may own several domains, and a domain may belong to an individual. We de-duplicate to companies and exclude domains that identify a person, and we publish the residual rate with every pack.
