PsiQuantum

PsiQuantum is a Palo Alto, California photonic quantum computing company founded in 2016 by Jeremy O'Brien, Terry Rudolph, Pete Shadbolt, and Mark Thompson, building utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers based on single-photon qubits at telecom wavelength. Its Omega chipset — a silicon photonic system integrating on-chip single-photon sources, superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors, barium-titanate optical switches, and low-loss fiber couplers — is manufactured on 300mm wafers at GlobalFoundries' flagship fab in Malta, NY, leveraging mature semiconductor processes rather than exotic cryogenic fabrication. The company is constructing two utility- scale, million-qubit, fault-tolerant quantum computing sites: one at Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia (in partnership with the Australian and Queensland governments) and one at the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park in Chicago, Illinois (with additional R&D at PsiLabs in Daresbury, UK and assembly at PsiFactory in Milpitas, CA). PsiQuantum exposes a developer surface aimed at fault-tolerant quantum algorithm researchers: Construct, an enterprise platform for FTQC algorithm development, resource analysis, and training; Circuit Designer, a free web tool for prototyping and visualizing fault-tolerant quantum circuits; Circuit Hub, a shared library of `.circuit` files; and two open-source Python projects on GitHub — Bartiq, a symbolic quantum resource estimator that compiles subroutine-level costs to global T-gate, Toffoli, qubit, and circuit-volume estimates, and QREF, an open JSON-Schema-based format for representing quantum algorithms as hierarchical DAGs with a Pydantic validation library and a `qref-render` visualization tool. NVIDIA's CUDA-Q is integrated into Construct for accelerated simulation. PsiQuantum does not currently publish a commercial cloud-access REST API, OpenAPI specification, or a general-purpose quantum-execution SDK comparable to those of gate-model quantum cloud providers — its public developer artifacts are confined to FTQC resource-estimation tooling and algorithm-design surfaces — and there is no public pricing or self-serve tier for the underlying quantum hardware.

PsiQuantum is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Quantum Computing, Photonic Quantum Computing, Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computing, FTQC, and Single Photon Qubits.

PsiQuantum’s developer surface includes GitHub presence, product news, YouTube channel, and 18 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/psiquantum: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
