Celebrate 50 years of data and marketing solutions from Data Axle and our complete suite of products, including Data Axle USA.
With Data Axle’s past experience powering our bright future, Data Axle USA continues to support both B2B and B2C-focused companies in their quest to find, keep, and better understand their customers.
How?
Every single day, companies use data to better understand individuals as well as entire businesses or industries. From in-car navigation systems to local non-profits, clean and accurate information is used to make lives easier around the world. And it is only in having accurate, reliable data, that a company can truly serve its customers.
Data Axle USA is proud to offer industry-leading data—and a host of additional products and services that have been built to meet the needs of our customers.
Of course, we haven’t always been Data Axle USA. But while our name has changed, everything else about us has remained the same including our trusted marketing partners and customer support teams.
Data Axle USA’s History
Prior to being known as Data Axle USA, we were called Business Research Services. At that time, our offerings were simple: We created lists which we provided to mobile home manufacturers.
After a few years, our name changed to American Business Information (ABI). Committed to keeping ahead of the curve for our growing customer base, ABI recorded the entire Yellow Pages to its database. But that wasn’t all. In addition to giving customers accurate lead information, ABI wanted to offer marketing services that could help those same customers expand their operations.
It was in 1998 that ABI changed its name to Infogroup. And that was when what is presently known as Data Axle USA first came into existence as a product called InfoUSA.
As InfoUSA, we sold targeted marketing lists to companies while offering marketing services that could help them more easily find, acquire, and retain customers.
As for Infogroup, it was felt that this name better reflected the company’s core service of providing businesses around the world with reliable information. Infogroup continued to grow and expand, flexing services to meet the needs and demands of its loyal customer base.
In 2020, Infogroup changed its name to Data Axle. Through this rebrand, the company remained committed to providing its customers the solutions they relied upon while simultaneously offering a streamlined product.
The new name is shared by all of Data Axle’s present products including not only Data Axle USA but Data Axle Genie, Data Axle Reference Solutions, and Data Axle Polk City Directories. The name acknowledges that each solution is based on business intelligence derived from data.
At Data Axle USA, we’re proud to be part of Data Axle’s 50-year history which has included the acquisition of several competitors including:
Digital Directory Assistance (1996)
Database America (1997)
Donnelley Marketing Inc (1999)
Polk City Directories (2001)
Exact Data (2021)

It all comes back to the data
While one or all of these service offerings may prove helpful to you, the most important piece of the puzzle over the years has been quality data. Because without that, your business can’t succeed—no matter how much you market or sell.
That is why Data Axle USA is committed to investing millions of dollars every single year and dedicating over 300 full-time researchers to help ensure every single business and consumer record in our database is kept up to date. In other words, when you purchase our mailing and email lists, you can expect to get the highest data quality for your sales, marketing, research, and reference needs.
Here is some additional information about how we put together our business and consumer databases:

Calls Each year
