Quantum computing, as a cutting-edge technology field, is gradually transforming the landscape of technological applications. The qBraid company, founded by Kanav Setia and Jason Necaise, has built a bridge to quantum computing for users through its innovative platform. Users only need to log into the qBraid cloud interface to connect to quantum devices from companies such as NVIDIA, Microsoft, and IBM, quickly write code, or deploy cutting-edge software. qBraid's mission is to enable users to go from zero knowledge to running their first quantum program in a short time, providing a one-stop quantum ecosystem service.
"Our mission is to allow users to go from knowing nothing about quantum computing to running their first program on these amazing machines in less than 10 minutes," said Setia. Since its founding in June 2020, qBraid has attracted more than 20,000 users from over 120 countries around the world and has successfully deployed code on quantum devices. The platform not only simplifies the process of using quantum software but also ensures that developers are unaffected by software updates through version control support, allowing them to focus on algorithm development. In addition, the qBook interactive learning platform launched by qBraid further lowers the learning threshold for quantum computing, enabling users to run and modify code anytime on multiple devices and gain a deeper understanding of how it works.
With the continuous expansion of its user base, qBraid has evolved from initially integrating quantum computers into the platform to creating the quantum operating system qBraid-OS. Currently, this system has been adopted by four leading quantum companies. qBraid is productizing these quantum computers, focusing on the productization of quantum infrastructure, and becoming the "operating system" for quantum computers. People are using qBraid to build quantum applications in fields such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, driving innovation in new molecule discovery, new drug development, finance, cybersecurity, and other areas. Setia pointed out that with the increase in application cases, qBraid is cultivating a group of professionals who continue to advance the development of quantum computing.
