Frequently Asked Questions
What is The Impact Lab?
The Impact Lab is an Amazon-only technology and AI partner built by former Amazon leaders. We help brands maximize the full potential of Amazon Advertising. We simplify the assembly required nature of Amazon’s ad tech with our deep Amazon experience across data, media, and cloud architecture. We bridge the gap between media and technology so brands can make faster decisions, improve efficiency, and drive real business outcomes
Why do brands need The Impact Lab?
The Impact Lab helps brands simplify the complexity of the Amazon ecosystem. Amazon’s advertising and data tools are powerful but fragmented—spanning AMC, DSP, and AWS. We integrate these systems into a cohesive measurement and activation framework so marketers can focus on growth, not technical challenges.
What specific problems does The Impact Lab solve for Amazon advertisers?
The Impact Lab solves the three biggest challenges facing Amazon advertisers:
– Data fragmentation: Disconnected customer data across CRM, CDP, and retail platforms.
– Measurement blind spots: Limited ability to prove incremental value beyond ROAS.
– Operational inefficiency: Too much time spent managing data instead of acting on it.
We build the infrastructure and intelligence layer that connects these systems, giving marketers a unified, actionable view of performance.
How do The Impact Lab’s services work together?
The Impact Lab’s four services form a connected system designed to create a continuous loop of insight and action:
– Impact Data builds the secure foundation by ingesting and unifying first-party data.
– Impact Insights transforms that data into dashboards, models, and audience strategies.
– Impact Performance measures what truly drives incremental ROI across channels.
– Impact Creative AI uses those insights to generate and optimize ad creative at scale.
Together, they create a closed loop: data → insights → performance → creative optimization.
What makes The Impact Lab different from agencies or consultancies?
The Impact Lab is built to do what traditional agencies and analytics vendors can’t—combine deep Amazon Ads expertise, AWS engineering, and AI innovation under one roof. We don’t buy media; we architect measurable systems that connect data, insights, and creative for long-term performance advantage.
What type of customers does The Impact Lab serve?
The Impact Lab partners with mid-to-large Amazon advertisers—typically brands spending between $1M and $100M annually—who want to move beyond basic reporting into predictive analytics, attribution, and AI-driven optimization. We work across retail, CPG, entertainment, and DTC categories, helping marketing and data teams operate at a higher level of insight.
What technologies power The Impact Lab’s solutions?
The Impact Lab builds natively within Amazon Marketing Cloud, AWS, and Amazon Ads APIs. Our implementations use tools like Clean Rooms, S3, Lambda, Bedrock, and QuickSight, ensuring compliance, scalability, and direct alignment with Amazon’s roadmap. Clients retain full data ownership while we ensure seamless interoperability across platforms.
How does The Impact Lab ensure data security and compliance?
The Impact Lab operates entirely within Amazon’s privacy-safe infrastructure. All data is hashed or pseudonymized before use, stored securely within AWS, and governed through IAM roles and audit logging. Our privacy-by-design approach ensures every integration meets Amazon’s strict standards for data protection.
What results can clients expect from working with The Impact Lab?
The Impact Lab delivers measurable performance improvements across marketing and operations. The percentages below are averages from past engagements:
– ROI and incrementality: 10–25% lift through optimized spend and better attribution.

Why does The Impact Lab focus exclusively on Amazon?
