Chris Battis
Founder, PromptSquad
Chris is the real deal in the AI and SaaS landscape. While others are just talking about digital transformation, this guy has actually been building and scaling platforms, services, and teams that deliver tangible results.
As Director of Product at Wand AI, Chris is doing the hard work of helping organizations build workforces that combine human talent with AI agents. Not just for show—for actual business impact. His approach to AI isn't about hype; it's about making technologies work in practical, meaningful ways that drive growth.
Before Wand AI? He was crushing it at Jasper.ai, where he built their Professional Services practice from the ground up. We're talking custom AI solutions and advanced prompt engineering that actually solved real problems for clients. At HubSpot, he led global technical teams through mission-critical product migrations and managed 120+ developers—work that directly contributed to their successful IPO. That's not just impressive—that's execution at scale.
The numbers don't lie: Chris has helped scale AI platforms to 100K+ customers and $100M ARR. His expertise spans AI prompt engineering, LLM integration, solutions selling, and enterprise deployment—all focused on delivering measurable outcomes across industries including SaaS, AI, fintech, and digital marketplaces.
Sure, he's got that University of Vermont degree in Graphic Design, but his real education came from the trenches of business transformation. His approach combines technical know-how with creative problem-solving—a rare combination in today's market.
And here's what makes Chris relatable: beyond the professional achievements, he's a dedicated father of two kids (ages 9 and 11), catches waves as an avid surfer, shreds on the ski slopes, finds peace while fishing, keeps his rhythm as a drummer, and has a serious appreciation for tacos. This well-rounded perspective isn't just about work-life balance—it informs how he approaches challenges and connects with people.
Bottom line: Chris operates at the intersection of cutting-edge tech and practical business results. No empty promises, no unnecessary jargon—just focused execution that moves businesses forward. That's the difference between talking about transformation and actually making it happen.
