About this model
Claroty provides industrial cybersecurity for OT, IoT, and IIoT assets. It helps enterprises identify, manage, and protect operational systems that cannot be secured like conventional IT, including environments where availability and safety constraints limit the use of ordinary endpoint-security approaches.
The buyer is typically an enterprise operating sites with specialised assets and long technology lifecycles. This creates a platform revenue opportunity linked to sites, assets, and modules, but also a demanding implementation and services requirement as customers connect industrial networks and coordinate IT and operational teams.
Model enterprise customers, sites, protected assets, platform ARR, implementation, services, module adoption, expansion, renewals, and churn. Include solution engineering, threat research, support, cloud delivery, and sales costs. Site rollout, asset coverage, module attach, contract value, services margin, retention, and sales-cycle duration should determine scenarios.
A turnkey financial model
Live formulas, no hardcoded values
Outputs are driven by live formulas, so the workbook updates from its assumptions instead of relying on hardcoded results.
All assumptions in one tab
Inputs are clearly marked in the Assumptions tab and separated from calculations, making it clear what to change and what to leave intact.
Statements always balancing
For integrated-statement models, the balance sheet, cash flow, and supporting schedules tie through properly.
Distinct schedules for clarity
Debt, working capital, taxes, and cash flow can get messy quickly. We group calculations in clear schedules, not across disconnected tabs.
No hidden macros or external links
There are no unexplained external workbook links or macros to undermine auditability or portability.
Changes flow through the model
Update a key driver and see the impact carry through the forecast, financing, and return outputs. We never use hardcoded numbers in formulas.

How to build a detailed financial model for Claroty
A complete walkthrough of the business, drivers, and assumptions behind the downloadable Claroty model - distilled from its pitch deck and publicly available information.
Product & value proposition
Claroty's platform claims to be the only solution protecting all assets "within four walls" - OT, IoT, and IIoT. Three core product lines:
- Claroty Continuous Threat Detection (CTD): "Right for Me" collection architecture, sophisticated threat detection, threat intelligence.
- Claroty Edge: Zero-infrastructure OT security solution - fast deployment, no network changes required; industry first.
- Claroty Secure Remote Access (SRA): Zero Trust Network Architecture for OT; compensating controls for insecure OT assets.
Platform capabilities span: Asset Visibility, Vulnerability Management, Threat Detection, Threat Intelligence, Risk Management, Secure Remote Access.
Customer journey framing: three onramps based on enterprise maturity - Understand Your Network → Detect Threats → Control Access.
Market
- Enterprise IoT spending expected to exceed $4B in 2024.
- Bubble chart (slide 3) shows largest 2024 TAM segments by vertical: Manufacturing & Natural Resources (~$4.0B+, largest bubble), Healthcare Providers and Utilities (high growth %, ~$0.5B), Building Automation, Physical Security, Government.
- OT & IIoT Security Market combined (slide 13):
- 2018A: OT $1,419M + IIoT $250M = $1,669M
- 2019E: OT $1,671M + IIoT $380M = $2,051M
- 2020E: OT $1,969M + IIoT $585M = $2,554M
- 2021E: OT $2,319M + IIoT $820M = $3,139M
- 2022E: OT $2,732M + IIoT $1,115M = $3,847M
- CAGR ~23.2%
- Global IoT-connected devices: 8.6B (2018A) → 10.8B (2019A) → 12.8B (2020E) → 14.6B (2021E).
- 93% of companies will augment/replace OT monitoring systems within 3 years due to IoT adoption.
Revenue model
- Not explicitly detailed in the deck. Model inferred as enterprise SaaS/subscription given:
- Platform described as continuously monitoring OT networks.
- Three distinct product modules (CTD, Edge, SRA) suggest modular licensing or tiered subscription.
- Channel: direct sales + channel/reseller partners (NTT, Deloitte, KPMG, PwC) + ICS/automation OEM partners (Rockwell, Siemens, Schneider, Yokogawa).
- No ACV, ARR, contract length, or pricing tier data in deck.
Traction & metrics
- Funding: $100M total raised, Series C.
- Employees: 270+.
- Founded: 2015.
- HQ: New York City.
- Claims market leadership: "leading ICS market in 2020 in terms of new vulnerabilities disclosed".
- No revenue, ARR, customer count, NRR, or growth rate disclosed in deck.
Competition / moat
Three stated competitive advantages:
- Deep Protocol Library: Proprietary protocol/asset library; vendor relationships for rapid new protocol support; creates barrier to entry.
- Best-in-Class Security Research: ICS vulnerability research and disclosures; threat intelligence; market thought leadership.
- Broadest Portfolio: Widest capability set in industrial cybersecurity (visibility + threat detection + remote access); API-based adjacency expansion.
Self-described as "market leader". Competitive landscape and named competitors not shown.

Recommended financial model
- Archetype + why: Enterprise SaaS ARR model with multi-module expansion. Claroty sells a platform with three product modules (CTD, Edge, SRA) into large enterprises; revenue is subscription-based and expands as customers add modules. Standard SaaS ARR waterfall (new ARR + expansion ARR - churn = net ARR) with an ACV/seat or site-based pricing construct is most appropriate. No GMV/transaction layer; no insurance or inventory components.
- Forecast horizon & granularity: 5 years (2020–2025), quarterly for years 1–2, annual for years 3–5. Deck dated 2020 (copyright), post-Series C.

Created by ex-finance professionals
Hey, I’m Alex and I created Finamodel.
Over my years in the finance industry I kept building the same models over and over again. Same structure, same assumptions, different logo. So I started building frameworks to turn them into clean, reusable templates.
Every model here is one I’d actually use for a client, and I personally vet each one before it goes up.
I’m not an expert in every industry, but I’ve built enough models to know what belongs in one. And when something is completely foreign to me, I reach out to my network for experts to work on our models with us.
Having a template library on hand cuts a first build from hours to minutes.
Need help finding your model? You’ll find me in the Finamodel app!
