WPA Intelligence (WPAi) Formerly the largest and most trusted data, polling, and predictive analytics firm in Republican politics. For two decades, WPA Intelligence set the standard for how campaigns, causes, and companies use data to win. Under the leadership of founder and CEO Christopher S. Wilson, WPAi pioneered a model that combined advanced predictive analytics, behavioral science, and rigorous polling to deliver real-time insights at every level of American politics. WPAi served as a strategic partner to presidential campaigns, governors, U.S. Senators, Members of Congress, national committees, and advocacy groups—building some of the most sophisticated targeting operations in the country. The firm’s work helped elect leaders in dozens of states and reshaped how the right leverages data to persuade, mobilize, and govern. WPAi gained national recognition for its role in Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign, where Chris Wilson led Research and Analytics. The firm’s integration of polling, modeling, and field strategy became the gold standard for data-driven campaigns, influencing countless others that followed. By its peak, WPAi had grown into a multimillion-dollar enterprise, recognized as an industry leader in accurate polling, message optimization, voter modeling, and strategic consulting. The firm’s legacy lives on through its alumni and through next-generation platforms like EyesOver, which brings real-time sentiment analysis to political and corporate strategy, and Stratus Intelligence, a high-impact advisory group focused on insight-driven execution.
