A demo of Clu, our agent, doing this for a whole list. Asked: Find Heads of Data or Analytics, 2-5 years in the role, at Series C+ software companies with 201-1,000 people that raised in the last 12 months. US or Canada. Skip HubSpot customers. Verify their emails. Clu runs the tools, asks for confirmation before spending credits (Find work emails for 25 leads on Data leaders, Series C+, 25 credits), fills the list row by row and reports: 25 leads, 24 verified emails. One is a catch-all, so I marked it risky.

How to calculate TAM

A TAM calculation estimates your Total Addressable Market: the full revenue opportunity if you captured 100% of your target segment. Count the companies that fit your ICP and multiply by average annual contract value. SAM is the part you can realistically serve, and SOM is the slice you can capture in year one.

How does this tool work?

Total Addressable Market (TAM) is the total revenue opportunity available if you captured 100% of your target market. For B2B sales teams, understanding TAM helps prioritize which segments to pursue, how much to invest in outbound, and whether a market is large enough to justify a dedicated go-to-market motion.

To estimate it bottom-up, count the companies that match your ideal customer profile and multiply by your average annual contract value. SAM (Serviceable Addressable Market) is the portion you can realistically serve, and SOM (Serviceable Obtainable Market) is what you can capture in year one. Clu People Search lets you filter by title, seniority, location, industry and headcount at no credit cost, so you can see who is in the segment before you spend anything.

It then finds and verifies their work emails across 25+ providers, at 1 credit per verified email.

Frequently asked questions

Short answers about the TAM Calculator: what it checks, what it costs and where it stops.

What is TAM, SAM, and SOM?

TAM (Total Addressable Market) is the total revenue opportunity if you had 100% market share. SAM (Serviceable Addressable Market) is the portion of TAM you can realistically serve with your current product and go-to-market. SOM (Serviceable Obtainable Market) is what you can realistically capture in year one. Investors and sales leaders use these metrics to assess market opportunity and set realistic revenue targets.

How accurate is a TAM estimate?

A top-down estimate from industry averages and public market data is directional. It's useful for quick sizing, pitch decks, and planning conversations. For a tighter number, build a bottom-up model from your specific ICP criteria. Clu's People Search can help you see which contacts match your target filters.

How do I find contacts in my TAM?

After estimating your TAM, use Clu's People Search to find actual contacts matching your criteria. Filter by industry, company size, job title and geography, and Clu finds their contact details across 25+ data providers, with 98% verified work emails and 85% phone numbers on our 500-lead benchmark.
