GERMAN ENGINEERING. GLOBAL AMBITION.
We build
quantum computers
designed to scale.
Powered by our proprietary MAGIC technology, we combine the precision of trapped-ion qubits with a fundamentally different approach to scalability.
Trapped-ion quantum computing.
Powered by MAGIC.
Our quantum computers are based on trapped ions and our proprietary MAGIC technology (Magnetic Gradient Induced Coupling). By using microwave-based control, we aim to reduce system complexity and advance scalable quantum computing architectures.
Our ambition is to make quantum computing a powerful resource for industry, institutions and research.
