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.
