Pro v1.0.0 1 view

Research and calculate TAM/SAM/SOM for any product or market using publicly available data sources. Provides top-down and bottom-up methodologies, documented assumptions, sensitivity analysis, and strategic recommendations.

What You Get

Complete market sizing research in 10-15 minutes instead of 4-8 hours of manual work, with documented sources and confidence levels suitable for business cases and fundraising

The Problem

Market sizing is time-consuming and often produces unreliable estimates. Product managers, founders, and strategists spend 4-8 hours gathering data from scattered sources, making assumptions without documentation, and producing single-point estimates that create false precision. The process is error-prone, hard to validate, and difficult to update when assumptions change.

The Solution

This skill conducts comprehensive market sizing research using publicly available data from government databases, industry publications, and public company filings. It calculates TAM using top-down methodology (total market × segment share × geography) and validates with bottom-up analysis (customer count × average spend). The skill provides ranges rather than false precision, documents all assumptions with sensitivity analysis, and assigns confidence levels based on data quality. It includes market trends, competitive landscape analysis, and strategic recommendations for market entry.

How It Works

  1. 1 Gather product description, target segment, and geographic scope from user
  2. 2 Research TAM using top-down methodology with 3-5 targeted web searches for industry size and segment share
  3. 3 Research SAM using bottom-up methodology by finding customer counts and average spend data
  4. 4 Validate estimates by comparing top-down and bottom-up approaches, document discrepancies
  5. 5 Calculate SOM with realistic market share assumptions and 5-year revenue trajectory
  6. 6 Document 3+ key assumptions with sensitivity analysis showing impact on market size
  7. 7 Research market trends, growth rates, and regulatory factors affecting the market
  8. 8 Analyze competitive landscape including incumbents, direct competitors, and market penetration
  9. 9 Provide strategic recommendations for market attractiveness, validation priorities, and entry strategy
  10. 10 Format comprehensive report with sources, confidence levels, and alternative scenarios
