D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NASDAQ: QBTS), the only dual-platform quantum computing company providing both annealing and gate-model systems, software and services, has launched a beta program for its gate-model quantum computing simulator, according to a recent press release. The beta program offers select customers early access to the simulator before its general availability, enabling them to experiment with error-aware programming and develop quantum applications in preparation for D-Wave’s forthcoming gate-model systems. The simulator is built around D-Wave’s dual-rail superconducting gate-model technology, which is designed to leverage error detection to deliver efficient quantum error correction with significantly lower hardware overhead as systems scale.
Participants in the simulator beta program include commercial and research organizations such as BBVA, FirstQFM, Florida Atlantic University, and the Julich Supercomputing Centre. Their involvement signals strong interest from both industry and academia in advancing practical quantum computing capabilities.
This announcement matters because it represents an important milestone in D-Wave’s gate-model development roadmap and underscores the company’s commitment to delivering enterprise-grade quantum solutions. By providing early access to the simulator, D-Wave allows customers to begin building and testing quantum applications now, potentially accelerating the adoption of gate-model quantum computing once systems become available. The focus on error-aware programming addresses a critical challenge in quantum computing—error correction—which is essential for scaling systems and achieving reliable results. If successful, this approach could lower the hardware requirements for error correction, making quantum computing more accessible and cost-effective for a broader range of organizations.
D-Wave is a leader in the development and delivery of quantum computing systems, software, and services. It is the world’s first commercial supplier of quantum computers and the first and only to offer dual-platform quantum computing products and services, spanning both annealing and gate-model technologies. The company’s mission is to help customers realize the value of quantum today through enterprise-grade systems available on-premises and via its Leap quantum cloud service, which offers 99.9% availability and uptime. More than 100 organizations across commercial, government, and research sectors trust D-Wave to address complex computational challenges.
