About the Company

Alice & Bob

Develops fault-tolerant quantum computer hardware

Alice & Bob builds quantum computers that use self-correcting superconducting qubits to achieve fault-tolerant quantum computing. Their machines are designed to run any quantum algorithm, helping researchers tackle hard, complex problems with fewer errors. The product combines a quantum computer chip and related hardware to support quantum computation, backed by simulations to aid design and testing. Unlike others that rely on less error-tolerant qubits, this company focuses on error-free operation through self-correcting qubits, aiming to provide researchers and organizations a reliable platform for advancing quantum algorithms and solving challenging problems. The overall goal is to expand practical quantum computing by delivering a dependable, scalable hardware system that researchers can use to explore and implement advanced quantum techniques.
