About Fundamental
Fundamental Applications Corp. was founded in 2014 to launch innovative mobile applications targeted at millennials. Millennials are described as a demographic born between 1980 and 2000 into a digital world with significant discretionary income. Fundamental launched their first application, Serum™, earlier this year. Serum is an innovative and unique mobile chat application allowing users to post questions and have text conversations with a group of their friends anonymously; nobody involved in the conversation is aware of who in the group is responding. Serum also provides control to the users over conversations they initiate, such as adding or removing participants. Serum goes beyond existing applications such as Whisper and Secret, which only allow for one-way conversations, by creating an interactive way of sharing. Serum also goes above and beyond in terms of implementing protocols for anti-bullying. Fundamental intends to continue to develop additional apps targeting privacy, anonymity and chat with its increasing user base.
