I'd scale way, way back first. In order to solve an eight-figure problem, you can't be asking 'how do I find people to talk to.' You need to already know the answer to that question in order to play in this league.
Also, offering something for free isn't going to cut it, either. "Free" in this case could cost your customers tens of millions of dollars. They're not going to risk that just (especially?) because you're offering something for free.
Having said that, there's nothing stopping you from calling companies up and asking for their 'director of ____.' Tell the gatekeeper that you're doing some market research and want to validate an idea. If you ask nicely, that will often get you connected with someone.
When you talk to the Director, tell them about your idea, and ask them if there would be a need for a solution to that, and if they've ever considered what you're proposing.
