The next generation of quantum knowledge

Learning quantum computing doesn’t have to be difficult. While the majority of available material has been limited or overly technical for newcomers to the field, our interactive learning platform addresses this gap.

Combining accessible and interactive modules with engaging content and gamified skills development, Black Opal is the perfect entry to the field – from curious students to professional developers. Black Opal can be used independently or as a companion to formal coursework – on campus, or online.

‍

Black Opal empowers educators by providing interactive, professionally designed quantum computing courses that are ready to deploy with minimal preparation. The platform features engaging visual lessons, animations, and hands-on activities that make complex concepts accessible for students at any level.

Flexible content customization, cohort management and progress monitoring allow instructors to tailor learning experiences to their students’ needs. Additionally, Black Opal offers industry-recognized certifications and shareable microcredentials, motivating students and providing tangible recognition of their achievements. This makes quantum education engaging, efficient, and scalable for any institution.

We work with academic teams and PhD students who are leading global efforts to make quantum technology a reality.

We understand that the priority for research students and doctoral candidates is speed – and to focus on the big questions in quantum technology - but unstable hardware, onerous manual tasks, and bug hunting in code inevitably gets in the way.

Our advanced quantum control software Boulder Opal provides everything you need to design, automate, and scale your quantum experiments.

We support individual users, small teams, or entire institutions through multi-user site licenses.

Achieve meaningful results from quantum computers through fully 
automated error suppression — no hardware expertise required

Today’s quantum computers are growing rapidly, but errors hinder the ability to get useful results. Fire Opal is an out-of-the-box cloud solution that allows you to solve your toughest quantum problems with over 100 qubits using Q‑CTRL’s proprietary automated error suppression technology.

Now anyone can boost the quality of their use cases run on real hardware while achieving massive cost savings. A single pipeline for abstracting hardware, automatically reducing error, and boosting algorithmic success on quantum computers will transform the value of your quantum applications.
