What they do

Problem

Quantum engineers must manually and slowly tune quantum chips into operational conditions, limiting the ability to scale quantum computers to many qubits.

Solution

AI-driven automation software that operates and tunes quantum computers by removing humans from the calibration and control loop.

Who it's for

Quantum hardware companies and quantum engineering teams operating and scaling quantum processors.

Founders

Brandon Severin

Co-Founder & CEO

Building quantum superintelligence. During my PhD at Oxford, I worked with 4 quantum institutions across the globe (IST Austria, Basel, UNSW, Diraq), developing AI for semiconductor quantum device control and published 4 papers on the topic including one in Nature.
