“Retailers today are navigating increasingly complex data environments, with fragmented sources and rising expectations for personalized experiences,” said Ornella Urso, IDC Research Director. Amperity’s platform tackles these challenges with its patented identity resolution, data governance, and embedded AI, enabling retailers to unify customer data and activate insights at scale. Clients like Accent Group and SPARC Group leverage Amperity to enhance customer engagement and drive revenue growth across channels.
Amperity’s recent launches, the Identity Resolution Agent and Chuck Data, strengthen its leadership. The Identity Resolution Agent uses machine learning to merge fragmented customer data dynamically, while Chuck Data, an AI assistant integrated with Databricks, allows data engineers to build customer tables and tag PII using natural language, reducing manual coding. “Customer data engineering is full of repetitive, painful work, so we built Chuck to get rid of it,” said Derek Slager, Amperity’s CTO.
The global CDP market is projected to reach $20.5B by 2028, driven by demand for personalized customer experiences. Amperity, founded in 2016, serves over 400 brands, including Alaska Airlines and Wyndham Hotels, processing billions of data points. Its $100M Series D funding in 2021, led by HighSage Ventures, and a valuation exceeding $1B underscore its market strength.
