How Qoolize built Sphera with Trunkstar

Qoolize built Sphera with Trunkstar to simplify and centralize how companies search for, compare, commission, and manage internet connectivity worldwide.

Published by Trunkstar · Reviewed August 27, 2026

The challenge

Make global internet sourcing easier to use and easier to scale

Qoolize sells internet connectivity to operators, managed service providers, and value-added resellers. Researching options and sourcing quotes remained highly manual, while customers expected faster and more transparent answers.

Qoolize wanted a differentiated connectivity environment that could present current supplier options, support self-service, and manage more of the lifecycle without requiring the company to build every software foundation internally.

Why Trunkstar

Use a configurable telecom engine instead of starting from zero

Qoolize ruled out an internal build because it would have cost more and delayed market entry. Trunkstar already had a modular connectivity lifecycle engine and telecom implementation experience that could be configured around the Sphera proposition.

The collaboration combined Qoolize's view of the customer journey and global internet proposition with Trunkstar's sourcing, quoting, supplier-data, workflow, and white-label capabilities.

The implementation

Normalize varied supplier data behind one branded experience

Qoolize reports that the joint team developed the initial environment within six months. Supplier information arriving through APIs, spreadsheets, and portal workflows was standardized for use in a consistent interface.

Sphera lets users enter a location, see relevant internet service providers, review pricing, and begin the provisioning journey. Ordering and delivery visibility extend the experience beyond search and comparison.

Branded customer journey

Sphera presents Qoolize's proposition while Trunkstar supplies the configurable engine.

Multiple supplier formats

The environment brings API, spreadsheet, and portal-derived inputs into a more consistent model.

Lifecycle workflow

Search and comparison connect with quoting, ordering, delivery, and management steps.

Global reach

A platform expanded after launch

At launch, Sphera integrated more than 350 last-mile providers and APIs and enabled quoting and ordering across more than 75 countries on five continents.

The platform standardized ISP data across more than 100 countries during its initial development and later expanded ISP sourcing support to more than 120 countries.

The lesson

Differentiate the customer proposition without rebuilding the lifecycle engine

The Sphera story is a practical build-versus-configure example. Qoolize retained control of the proposition, customer journey, provider relationships, and roadmap while using Trunkstar to accelerate the repeated software foundations behind connectivity management.

For other providers, the relevant question is not whether to copy Sphera. It is which sourcing, quoting, ordering, integration, and presentation capabilities should be configured around their own business model.
