# Aria Systems

> Aria Systems is a San Francisco company that runs the unglamorous plumbing of recurring revenue: it decides how much Disney, Experian, Roku and telecom carriers charge you, when, and in which currency. Founded in 2002 as one of the first cloud alternatives to on-premise billing, it now sells a monetization platform - Aria Billing Cloud and its Allegro usage engine - to enterprises that price things in ways spreadsheets can no longer survive. In 2026 it went further than most billing vendors dare, building what it calls the world's first agentic BSS for telecoms with ServiceNow.
