Amperity Launches Chuck Data, the First AI Agent Built for Customer Data Engineering in Databricks
Bringing the vibe coding revolution to customer data engineering - accelerating identity resolution, improving accuracy, and eliminating manual overhead
SEATTLE, June 09, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amperity, the AI-powered customer data cloud, today launched Chuck Data, the first AI Agent built specifically for customer data engineering. Chuck uses Amperity's years of experience and patented identity resolution models, trained on billions of data sets across 400+ enterprise brands, as critical knowledge behind the AI. Chuck runs in the terminal and empowers engineers to quickly understand their data, tag it, and resolve customer identities in minutes - all from within their Databricks lakehouse.
As pressure mounts to deliver business-ready insights quickly, data engineers are hitting a wall: while infrastructure has modernized, the work of preparing customer data still relies on manual code and brittle rules-based systems. Chuck changes that by enabling data engineers to "vibe code" - using natural language prompts to delegate complex engineering tasks to an AI assistant.
Chuck connects directly to a user's Databricks environment, leveraging native compute and large language model (LLM) endpoints to execute high-impact workflows like identity resolution, compliance tagging, and data profiling.
"Customer data engineering is full of repetitive, painful work, so we built Chuck to get rid of it," said Derek Slager, co-founder and CTO at Amperity. "Chuck understands your data and helps you get stuff done faster, whether you're stitching identities or tagging PII. No orchestration, no UI gymnastics—it's just fast, contextual, and command-driven."
Key Features of Chuck Data:
Natural language command interface for customer data tasks
Identity resolution via Amperity Stitch, running on Databricks compute
PII tagging and customer profiling across Unity Catalog
Compliance through accurate and easy PII tagging within Databricks
Zero-copy architecture: Chuck never moves your data
Built for Databricks, Backed by Amperity's Identity Expertise
Chuck runs entirely in your terminal, using your Databricks environment for compute, storage, and LLM execution. With a single install, engineers can run natural language commands that eliminate manual code and deliver accurate, scalable customer profiles.
A core capability of Chuck is running Amperity's patented identity resolution algorithm - the same trusted Stitch technology used in its enterprise CDP. Users can run unlimited free Stitch on datasets up to 1 million records with a generous budget of credits for larger data sets included for free with the research preview program.
Paid plans unlock unlimited runs, access to Amperity's stable ID algorithm, and enterprise support.

From Waste to Strategic Metals: Circular Materials Achieves First Industrial-Scale Recoveries Under the Critical Raw Materials Act
PADUA, Italy--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Circular Materials announces two major milestones under the Critical Raw Materials Act: the recovery from industrial wastewater of the first kilogram of ruthenium and the first ton of nickel, preventing the release of heavy metals into the environment. These results were secured through strong collaborations with two leading companies in surface treatments: LEM, core company of the LEM INDUSTRIES Group, specialized in the luxury sector, and Argos Surface Technologies Group, a leader in industrial coatings. We recover what the world needs most: Circular Materials delivers first industrial-scale metal recoveries. This success comes just a few months after the European Commission recognized Recover-IT as a strategic project, confirming the pivotal role of Circular Materials in securing critical raw material supplies, increasing recycling, and reducing the EU's dependence on imports. Ruthenium and Nickel: crucial metals for a sustainable future Ruthenium, a noble metal from the platinum group, is essential for cutting-edge sectors such as advanced electronics, green hydrogen production, fine chemicals, fuel cells, and luxury goods. Nickel, on the other hand, is a critical element, essential in advanced steels and lithium batteries —pillars of the energy transition. Circular Materials' proprietary SWaP (Supercritical Water Precipitation) technology delivers exceptional effectiveness and versatility to recover precious and industrially intensive metals. A revolutionary environmental impact: carbon negative and beyond Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the process applied to ruthenium and nickel reveals a remarkable environmental benefit. For ruthenium, emissions are reduced by over 99.6% compared to traditional mining. Even more impressive is the result for nickel: the SWaP process not only reduces emissions but becomes carbon negative, actively avoiding the total CO₂ production associated with conventional methods. ' Circular Materials strengthens its technological leadership and, together with its partners, builds a solid and integrated circular supply chain capable of transforming industrial waste into new resources, preventing the loss of critical materials,' says Marco Bersani, Founder & CEO of Circular Materials. ' With the industrial-scale recovery of ruthenium and nickel, we are shaping a strategy that reduces dependence on external sources, lowers the environmental impact of production processes, and valorizes waste streams that until now have been dispersed '. In a global context marked by the impacting scarcity of critical resources and the need to ensure a secure and sustainable supply, Circular Materials stands out as a key player in a new European industrial paradigm focused on recovering the resources the world needs most. About Us: Circular Materials Circular Materials is a groundbreaking company with proprietary technology for the recovery of strategic metals from industrial wastewater through a sustainable and highly efficient process. The company has developed and patented the Supercritical Water Precipitation (SWaP) technology, which simultaneously treats wastewater and recovers metal, eliminating toxic sludge production and significantly reducing environmental impact, both in terms of waste and emissions.
