Develops quantum-enabled products and software

About Infleqtion

ColdQuanta develops quantum technology products that focus on smaller, portable devices rather than large quantum computers. Their offerings include quantum sensors and devices like Atomic Prisms and ion devices, which ensure data integrity from the edge to the computer. ColdQuanta provides both individual components and complete plug-and-play solutions, catering to research labs and quantum machine development. Additionally, they have created a quantum software platform called Superstaq, which allows users to write quantum programs in any language and target any quantum computer, achieving significant performance improvements. Their partnership with the Department of Energy enhances their resources and expertise, aiding in the commercialization of quantum technologies. ColdQuanta's goal is to make quantum technology accessible to a broader range of businesses and individuals.
