Company Overview
Fundamental Research Labs is an applied artificial intelligence research company that builds autonomous, collaborative, and socially intelligent agents, described as "digital humans". The company was co-founded by Dr. Robert Yang, a former MIT faculty member in computational neuroscience. Formerly known as Altera, the company's mission is to develop AI agents that can operate across complex, long-term tasks. Its products, which are already generating revenue, include "Fairies," a general-purpose consumer AI assistant, and "Shortcut," a spreadsheet-based agent for financial modeling that has reportedly outperformed human analysts in tests. The company raised approximately $33 million in a Series A funding round in August 2025, led by Prosus, bringing its total funding to over $40 million.
