The company was founded on December 23, 1983 on the basis of the teletext license granted by the Swiss Federal Council . The DRS teletext went into operation in 1984, that of the TSR in 1985 and that of the TSI in 1986. In 2001 the average daily number of visitors was 1.17 million, in 2004 1.3 million viewers.

In 2014, 800,000 Swiss people used teletext from Swiss TXT every day.
