Q-CTRL is an Australian company that provides disciplined control engineering solutions.[1]

History[edit]

Q-CTRL was founded by Michael J. Biercuk in 2017. Q-CTRL is built on Biercuk's research leading the Quantum Control Lab at the University of Sydney, where he is a Professor of Quantum Physics and Quantum Technology.[2]

Q-CTRL has received investments from firms including Main Sequence Ventures, Sequoia Capital and other venture capital firms.[3][4] In April 2018, Q-CTRL was named in IBM's hand-picked network of companies.[5]

In December 2018, Q-CTRL launched its first product, Black Opal, the software brings a friendly user interface to the quantum domain, delivered via a hardware-agnostic SaaS model.[6][7] Q-CTRL has an additional python-based software package called Boulder Opal for advanced users, focused on quantum control research and the direct integration of physical-layer error suppression into hardware.[7]

In April 2019, Q-CTRL released an open source library of error suppression controls for quantum computers. The library of controls integrates with IBM’s Qiskit programming framework for quantum computers and can be run on any quantum machine.[8]
