A quick founder-friendly primer on the concepts behind this calculator.
Total Addressable Market (TAM) represents the total revenue opportunity available if a product or service achieved 100% market share. It defines the absolute ceiling of the opportunity.
Serviceable Available Market (SAM) is the portion of TAM that your product or business model can realistically serve based on geography, segment, channels, and operational constraints.
Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM) is the share of SAM your company can realistically capture in a reasonable time horizon given competition, distribution, and execution capacity.
Investors use TAM/SAM/SOM to assess whether a business can grow large enough to deliver venture-scale returns. A credible SOM grounded in realistic assumptions is often more persuasive than a sky-high TAM with no execution path.
