⚡ Quantum Brief
Austrian quantum computing firm AQT has integrated its trapped-ion quantum processor into the Quantum Rings platform, enabling global users to access its technology via a unified API. The partnership, announced March 2026, democratizes quantum experimentation for researchers and developers. Users gain on-demand access to AQT’s IBEX Q1 quantum computer through Open Quantum’s platform, which offers $50 in free credits every 90 days. This eliminates upfront costs, accelerating algorithm testing and cross-provider comparisons. The collaboration leverages AQT’s 19-inch rack-mounted trapped-ion system, a commercial first, to simplify quantum hardware deployment. Open Quantum’s unified interface supports education, research, and multi-sector innovation. AQT CEO Thomas Monz emphasized the goal of broadening access to quantum technology, fostering diverse use cases. The move aligns with Europe’s push to expand quantum infrastructure and digital sovereignty. Developers can submit quantum circuits within minutes using Open Quantum’s SDK, streamlining experimentation. The partnership reflects growing industry efforts to standardize quantum cloud access and reduce barriers to entry.

Empowering pioneers, quantum solutions light the path to innovationDriving progress and shaping the future of industriesHarness quantum potential to optimize public services and decision-makingThe first commercial 19-inch rack-mounted quantum computerExperience high-performance hardware to accelerate your projectsProcess your quantum algorithm with our cloud serviceInnsbruck, Austria – The home of ion trap quantum computingMeet the partners fueling our success and shared visionJoin our team and be part of a vibrant and forward-thinking companyMarch 17th, 2026Through this collaboration, users worldwide gain direct access to AQT’s latest trapped-ion quantum technology through an easy-to-use API, significantly lowering the barrier to real-world quantum experimentation.Through Open Quantum, you can access AQT’s IBEX Q1 quantum computer using the same unified API you use for other backends – with $50 in free compute credits every 90 days to start running circuits and comparing results across providers immediately. Access is available on demand, allowing users to experiment at each user’s own pace. Open Quantum is designed as a unified access layer across hardware providers, supporting early experimentation, education, and cross-sector collaboration.“As we continue to expand the reach of AQT’s state-of-the-art technology through this partnership with Quantum Rings, we are excited to see how users will leverage our quantum systems. Our hope is that this collaboration enables users who may not have traditionally had access to our technology to experiment freely and drive a broader diversity of use cases toward real quantum value.” Dr. Thomas Monz, CEO, AQTSubmit your first circuit to AQT’s IBEX Q1 in minutes.
