  description: Aquila is QuEra's 256-qubit neutral-atom quantum computer, the first publicly accessible neutral-atom QPU.
    It runs Analog Hamiltonian Simulation (AHS) programs and is accessed programmatically through Amazon Braket via the device
    ARN arn:aws:braket:us-east-1::device/qpu/quera/Aquila in us-east-1. Pricing is $0.30 per task plus $0.01 per shot. Specs
    include a 76 by 75 micron workspace, 4 micron minimum atom distance, Rabi frequency 0 to 2.5 times 2 pi MHz, and global
    Rydberg detuning -20 to 20 times 2 pi MHz. There is no QuEra-operated REST API; programs are submitted through the AWS
    Braket task API.

  description: Gemini-class is QuEra's gate-model neutral-atom quantum computer with 260 Rubidium-87 physical qubits, all-to-all
    connectivity across two operational zones (storage and entanglement), and Dynamic Qubit Array (DQA) shuttling. Reported
    fidelities are 99.9 percent (global 1-qubit), 99.7 percent (local 1-qubit), 99.2 percent (2-qubit), with up to 20 parallel
    2-qubit gate pairs at 1 shot per second. Access is via pilot collaboration and premium customer engagement rather than
    a public self-service API. Gemini is the platform on which QuEra (with Harvard and MIT) demonstrated fault-tolerant magic-state
    distillation.

description: QuEra Computing is a Boston-based neutral-atom quantum computing company (founded 2018) that operates Aquila,
  a 256-qubit Analog Hamiltonian Simulation QPU available publicly through Amazon Braket, and Gemini-class, a 260-qubit gate-model
  neutral-atom system used for fault-tolerant logical-qubit research with Harvard and MIT. QuEra has no native public REST
  API; developers submit programs to Aquila through the AWS Braket task API using QuEra's Bloqade SDKs (bloqade-analog for
  Python hardware submission, Bloqade.jl for Julia emulation, bloqade-circuit for gate-model programs), built on the Kirin
  compiler IR. Additional open-source tools include tsim (QEC circuit sampling), bloqade-shuttle, bloqade-lanes, and bloqade-decoders
  for the Dynamic Qubit Array compilation stack.
