(Market) size is everything

Hey there,

Today, let’s talk about:

• A couple of AI tools that lets you use plain English to query your database (no need to learn SQL)

• the best ChatGPT prompts for sizing a market

• integrating AI into your app without code

• and lots more 👇

But first… a cheeky little promo: 

Hot on the heels of The Product Manager’s Prompt Book, I’ve recently released The Innovator’s Prompt Book.

💬 PROMPT OF THE DAY - MARKET SIZING

ChatGPT Output:

Bing Output:

I think ChatGPT performed best here, but given that Bing has live internet access, and is also great for source attribution which would be handy for the deck, I was able to follow-up and try to get it to actually research the estimates for me based on current data (which gives it an edge in this use case over ChatGPT’s 2021 cut-off).

So I asked Bing, “Could you go ahead and estimate the TAM, SAM and SOM for this company?” It still pushed back saying it needed more info, so I followed up with this:

“Based on the information I've given, please try to estimate the TAM, SAM and SOM for a start-up working on a SaaS platform for the food industry to reduce its carbon footprint, by enabling food producers based in the UK and Europe to track the environmental impact of their products. Ballpark estimates are fine too.” Bingo! (sorry)

Sometimes us Ideas People need to take a big dose of reality, put our own subconscious biases to one side and really have our idea interrogated.
