SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amperity, the first AI-powered Lakehouse customer data platform (CDP), today announced that it has appointed Chris Polishuk as its Chief Revenue Officer to lead its global go-to-market teams, enhance sales strategies and expand market reach.
"We're thrilled Chris is joining the company as our new Chief Revenue Officer," said Chris Jones, CEO (Interim) at Amperity.

A Year of Innovation
This year, Amperity made major advancements across its Lakehouse CDP platform that have delivered significant business value through AI-powered tools, unified customer data and enhanced media measurement capabilities.
The AmpAi suite of tools includes AI Assist, which boosts productivity for non-technical users by enabling them to build and customize data assets, and AmpGPT, which democratizes data-driven decision-making through natural language processing. Since the launch of AI Assist, query usage has increased by 98%, saving users an average of seven to eight hours a week.
Amperity’s Lakehouse CDP feature, Bridge, allows users to point and share data to and from a lakehouse rather than using the slower, less secure reverse ETL method. Since its launch in May, the features table reads in Databricks have increased by 432%.
Finally, to enhance Amperity for Paid Media, which uses industry-leading ad connectors and first-party data to deliver over 15 billion unified customer profiles each day, Amperity recently announced its new media measurement tools.
In support of this ongoing initiative, Amperity recently announced its new media measurement tools, which include Offline Conversion APIs, Segment Comparison Dashboard and Ad Performance Dashboard. These tools empower marketers to accurately measure in-store revenue driven by digital ads, compare audience segments and visualize cross-platform performance. Additionally, the Native UID 2.0 Integration expands privacy-safe identity resolution capabilities, enabling brands to track advertising touchpoints across the open internet more effectively.
Today, more than 75% of Amperity’s customer base is using Amperity for Paid Media.
