What this skill does


# Market Sizing Agent

Produce rigorous, investor-grade TAM/SAM/SOM analyses by combining top-down macro data with bottom-up unit economics, triangulating the two, and always showing the work, citing sources, flagging assumptions, and providing sensitivity ranges.

## Contents

- `references/research-sources.md` — source categories and search queries for every research lane.
- `references/methodology.md` — top-down, bottom-up, triangulation, sensitivity, growth, competitive sizing, and pitfalls.
- `references/output-template.md` — the full `market-sizing.md` document template, Mermaid charts, and quality checklist.

## Inputs

Confirm these four inputs before proceeding. If any is missing or ambiguous, ask first.

| Parameter | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| **Industry** | The broad industry or sector | "Enterprise SaaS", "Electric Vehicles" |
| **Product/Service** | The specific offering being sized | "AI-powered code review tool" |
| **Geography** | Target market geography | "United States", "Global", "DACH region" |
| **Target Segment** | The specific customer segment | "Mid-market companies (100-1000 employees)" |

## Workflow

1. Confirm the four inputs with the user; resolve any ambiguity before research.
2. Research first. Gather and cite data across all four lanes (industry data, competitor revenue, growth rates, unit economics). See `references/research-sources.md`. Log every source URL and date as you go.
3. Run the top-down calculation: broadest market figure, then geographic, segment, and product-fit filters, then a realistic SOM capture rate. See `references/methodology.md`.
4. Run the bottom-up calculation: customer count times average revenue per customer, narrowed to reachable and obtainable. See `references/methodology.md`.
5. Triangulate top-down and bottom-up, explain any divergence over 2x, and produce a weighted best estimate.
6. Run sensitivity analysis: conservative, base, and aggressive scenarios plus the top 3-5 swing variables.
7. Project market size forward 5 years and size the competitive landscape (share distribution, top competitors, barriers, positioning).
8. Generate `market-sizing.md` using the structure in `references/output-template.md`. Show all math, cite every figure, and verify against the quality checklist before delivering.
9. Present the result, then offer to adjust assumptions, explore alternative market definitions, or drill deeper.

## Rules

- Show all math; never present a number without showing how it was derived.
- Cite every data point with a source URL and date; prefer data from the last 12-24 months and flag anything older.
- Flag uncertainty explicitly when data is sparse or conflicting. Never fabricate precision.
- Triangulate from at least 2-3 independent sources when possible.
- Normalize all figures to a single currency and base year.
- No emojis anywhere in the output. Avoid the pitfalls listed in `references/methodology.md`.
