Quantum Rings, qBraid Partner to Expand Free Access to Quantum Hardware

Insider BriefPRESS RELEASE — Quantum Rings, a leader in quantum developer tools whose toolchain lets any developer run quantum workloads anywhere, and qBraid (Chicago, Illinois), a leader in quantum-cloud computing, announced a partnership today to make Quantum Rings’ Open Quantum platform available within qBraid Lab. Through this collaboration, tens of thousands of qBraid users immediately gain free and subsidized access to QPUs through the Open Quantum platform.“The next big quantum breakthrough could come from a student or a developer who’s never had a way onto real hardware until now,” said Bob Wold, CEO of Quantum Rings. “By bringing Open Quantum to qBraid, we’re removing the cost, complexity, and wait times that have kept most people out, and opening the door to a much broader community.”Open Quantum serves as a unified access point across quantum hardware providers, allowing users to run programs, explore different architectures, and develop portable workflows through a single interface. The integration of Open Quantum into qBraid Lab lowers barriers to experimentation through free and subsidized QPU time and gives qBraid users additional ways to test, benchmark, and develop applications across quantum systems.“Our goal with qBraid Lab is to provide a development environment where users can easily build, test, and run quantum programs,” said Kanav Setia, CEO of qBraid. “Bringing Open Quantum onto the platform gives our community new opportunities to access low-cost quantum compute and helps streamline the path from code to execution.”This partnership represents a major step towards open, accessible quantum ecosystems, where developers can move easily between tools, platforms, and hardware as technology continues to evolve. Users can link their Open Quantum and qBraid accounts and start running on Open Quantum backends through the qBraid platform today, in minutes.Open Quantum is available now within qBraid Lab.
