View company profile

At Quantum Circuits, Inc. (QCI), we are at the forefront of a technological revolution, pioneering the development of the world's first practical and useful quantum computers. Through groundbreaking technology and a relentless focus on innovation, we are building a full-stack quantum computing platform designed to tackle the most complex and challenging problems facing humanity. Our mission is to accelerate the timeline to fault-tolerant quantum computing and unlock its immense potential for real-world applications in fields ranging from drug discovery and materials science to finance and artificial intelligence. We were founded in 2015 by a team of world-renowned quantum physicists from Yale University, including Professor Rob Schoelkopf, a leading pioneer in the field of superconducting quantum computing. Our approach is fundamentally different from others in the industry. We believe in a 'correct first, then scale' strategy, which is why we have developed a novel superconducting architecture featuring our proprietary dual-rail qubits with built-in error detection. This industry-first innovation is a critical step towards overcoming the significant hurdle of error correction in quantum systems, enabling greater accuracy, performance, and scalability.

Our innovative architecture integrates high-fidelity qubits with intrinsic error detection and handling, a key component in reducing the number of physical qubits required to build a useful quantum computer. This pragmatic approach leapfrogs conventional methods that focus on brute-forcing qubit volumes and instead paves a more efficient path to achieving stable, consistent, and trustworthy results. We are not just building hardware; we are creating a complete ecosystem. Our integrated quantum software platform, including a software development kit (SDK), cloud portal, and an error-aware quantum simulator, empowers developers and researchers to manage qubit error detection in real-time. This allows them to explore new algorithmic possibilities and accelerate the development of novel applications. By providing the tools to tightly couple classical and quantum computations, we are enabling seamless integration and unlocking new classes of hybrid algorithms. Our commitment to collaboration extends to partnerships with industry leaders like NVIDIA and Microsoft, ensuring our technology is at the cutting edge and accessible to a broad range of users. At Quantum Circuits, we are not just imagining the future of computing; we are actively building it.
