Quantum Elements Helps Rigetti Predict Quantum Hardware Behavior

Quantum Elements Helps Rigetti Predict Quantum Hardware Behavior Matt Swayne November 12, 2026 Industry News Insider Brief Rigetti Computing is using Quantum Elements’ Constellation platform to simulate quantum processor behavior and assess how its systems will perform at scale. Rigetti said three years of collaboration validated Constellation’s ability to predict single- and two-qubit gate performance on its 36-qubit and 108-qubit processors. Constellation now supports Rigetti’s quantum error correction pipeline by supplying inputs for noise models used to predict logical error rates. PRESS RELEASE — Quantum Elements, developers of software that shortens the path to fault-tolerant quantum computing, announces that Rigetti Computing, a pioneer in full-stack quantum-classical computing, is leveraging Quantum Elements’ Constellation platform to model quantum device behavior to better understand how systems will perform at scale. Constellation gives quantum teams a development environment for running high-fidelity dynamic simulations. Physically accurate quantum digital twins running on classical computers enable teams to design, test, and analyze quantum systems before committing to hardware experiments. Constellation provides this capability by modeling the physical behavior of specific quantum processors. “Quantum Elements’ Constellation platform has expanded our ability to model gate operations beyond few-qubit systems and understand the error channels that limit their performance,” said Dr. Subodh Kulkarni, CEO of Rigetti. “Through three years of collaboration, we have validated the platform’s ability to accurately predict single- and two-qubit gate performance on our 36-qubit and 108-qubit QPUs. Constellation is now part of our quantum error correction pipeline, providing inputs for the noise models we use to predict logical error rates.” “We’re excited to see that Rigetti has integrated Constellation with their workflow to model hardware behavior,” said Izhar Medalsy, CEO and cofounder of Quantum Elements. “Their commitment to advancing the broader industry’s progress towards fault tolerant systems make them the ideal partner.” Keep track of everything going on in the Quantum Technology Market.
