About Seclum
Seclum is an AI-native security platform that starts with a single, narrow promise: tell you whether a URL or message is a scam, in plain English, in a few seconds.
Why we exist
Consumer security software has a credibility problem. In 2024 the FTC fined Avast (now part of Gen Digital, Norton's parent) $16.5Mfor selling users' browsing data after promising not to. Big AV suites tend to bundle features most people never use. The free tools that work (VirusTotal, Google Safe Browsing) aren't built for non-technical users, and they rely on blacklists that miss new scams every day.
We thought there was room for a tool that:
- Reasons about a URL or SMS instead of looking it up in a list
- Hashes the input at the edge so we literally cannot store the raw content
- Five checks a day stay free — no credit card, no time limit
- Bills overflow as one-time credit packs, not a subscription
How we build trust
Trust isn't a marketing claim, it's a verifiable property. So:
- The browser extension source ships in our public repo at v1.5 launch — read the manifest, audit the code, build it yourself.
- Our database has no column for raw URL or SMS content. Verifiable in our schema file.
- Anthropic does not train on customer API data — inputs are subject to Anthropic's standard API terms for transient safety/abuse review.
- We publish a sub-processor register and a Data Protection Impact Assessment.
Who we are
Seclum is a product of Angstroma, Inc.— a Delaware C-corp building AI tools for consumer and small-business markets. We're a small team, currently shipping v1 (consumer scam protection) ourselves.
The platform vision spans consumer protection (now), breach monitoring (next), cloud security and phishing simulation for SMB (later), and AI-driven SOC analyst tooling for security teams (later still). We'll get there one validated module at a time.
