Xanalys now markets, develops and supports a range of software tools including PowerCase, [2] Link Explorer [3] and PowerIndexer. [4]

History

The original versions of the software tools were developed by the UK software company Harlequin. However, at that time Link Explorer was known as Watson, [5] whilst Indexer has been known as PowerIndexer, Quenza and Hievat.

In 1999, Harlequin was acquired by Global Graphics primarily for its PostScript technologies. [6] Global Graphics then spun off the LispWorks and HIntS (Harlequin Intelligence Systems) aspects of the business into the first Xanalys Limited in January 2000. [7]

Xanalys was then acquired by Compudyne Corporation [8] and operated, as part of Tiburon Inc. until January 2009.
