What problem does it solve?

Market-sizing is a rigorous, defensible process to quantify TAM, SAM, and SOM with external validation and scenario testing, reducing investor skepticism.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Deterministic TAM/SAM/SOM calculations using top-down, bottom-up, or both approaches
  • External validation artifacts and cross-checks (validation.json, inputs.json, sizing.json)
  • Coaching commentary and risk flags to guide fundraising readiness

Quick Start

Run market-sizing with your deck or notes to produce a defensible TAM/SAM/SOM analysis and a ready-to-share report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate TAM, SAM, and SOM for investor fundraising?

Calculate TAM, SAM, and SOM using top-down, bottom-up, or both methodologies, and validate results with external sources to reduce investor skepticism. This process produces a structured set of artifacts including sizing.json and a final report for investor review.

What is the difference between top-down and bottom-up market sizing?

Top-down market sizing starts from broad industry data to narrow down to a target segment, while bottom-up builds estimates from individual unit economics and customer counts. This Skill identifies TAM, SAM, and SOM using either or both methodologies to ensure defensible calculations.

How do I validate market sizing estimates for a pitch deck?

Validate market sizing estimates by cross-checking internal calculations against external sources and generating validation artifacts. This Skill produces validation.json and inputs.json files that document the data sources and sensitivity checks used to prepare a defensible analysis.

Can I use my existing financial model data to generate a TAM SOM SOM report?

Yes, you can provide existing files like pitch decks or financial model data as inputs. The Skill accepts either provided files or conversational inputs to produce a complete artifact package including methodology.json and a ready-to-share final report.

What artifacts are included in an investor-grade market sizing package?

An investor-grade market sizing package includes inputs.json, methodology.json, validation.json, sizing.json, and a final report. These structured artifacts document the data, calculations, and external validation used to determine TAM, SAM, and SOM.

When should I include sensitivity analysis in my market sizing?

Include sensitivity analysis in market sizing when preparing for fundraising to test scenario robustness and identify risk flags. This Skill generates coaching commentary and validation artifacts to guide fundraising readiness and reduce investor skepticism.
