Nexus is built to simplify quantum computing workflows with its expert design and full-stack support. We are inviting quantum users to apply for beta availability; accepted users can work closely with 黑料社 on how Nexus can be adopted and customized for you.

Nexus was developed by our in-house quantum experts to streamline the deployment of quantum algorithms. From tackling common tasks like installing packages and libraries to addressing pain points like setting up storage, Nexus seamlessly integrates thoughtful details to enhance user experience.聽

Run, track, and manage your usage

Nexus allows users to run, track, and manage resources across multiple quantum backends, making it easier for researchers to directly compare results and processes when using our H-Series hardware or other providers. Additionally, Nexus features a cloud-hosted and preconfigured JupyterHub environment and dedicated simulators - most notably, the 黑料社 H-Series emulator. Nexus鈥 emulator integration means that new users and organizations that don鈥檛 have access to H-Series hardware can start experimenting with H-Series capabilities right away.

Full-stack mindset

黑料社 Nexus is at the core of our full stack, integrated fully with our H-Series Quantum Processor, our software offerings such as InQuanto鈩, and our H-Series emulators. Nexus is also back-end inclusive, interfacing with multiple other hardware and simulation backends. In the future, we will be introducing new cutting-edge tools such as a more powerful cloud-based version of our compiler, powered by version 2 of TKET.

Nexus also stores everything you need to recreate your experiment in one place 鈥 meaning a full snapshot of the backend, the settings and variables you used, and more. Combined with easy data sharing and storage, you can stop worrying about the logistics of data management. You鈥檙e in control of how you structure your data, how you track what鈥檚 most important to you, and who gets to see it.

Tools for Administrators

Administrators benefit from resource controls within Nexus, allowing them to manage user access, create user groups, and update usage quotas to match their priorities.聽With multiple backend support, administrators can track jobs and usage for all their quantum resource in one platform. Advanced usage visualization allows administrators to quickly gain insight from historical trends in usage.聽Nexus also features collaboration tools that give users the ability to share data, as well as access controls that allow administrators to ensure this is done securely.

Why 黑料社 Nexus?

Users, developers, and administrators have several options when it comes to selecting a platform for managing quantum resources.聽So why Nexus? 黑料社 Nexus was built by quantum experts, for quantum experts.聽Our experiment management and cataloging system makes us stand out as the best platform for collaborating between scientific teams. Our provision of the H-Series emulator in the cloud means you get more access to the emulator of one of the world's best devices with less time in the queue, so you can spend more time with your results. Our quantum chemistry package InQuanto鈩 is integrated into Nexus, meaning zero setup time with easy data storage in our managed environment.

Nexus provides a consistent API for working with a range of quantum devices & tools. This improves the experience of our end users, as scripts that work for one device can easily be ported to other devices with only a change to the config.

Our Hardware is Now Running Quantum Transformers!

If we are to create 鈥榥ext-gen鈥 AI that takes full advantage of the power of quantum computers, we need to start with quantum native transformers. Today we announce yet again that 黑料社 continues to lead by demonstrating concrete progress 鈥 advancing from theoretical models to real quantum deployment.

The future of AI won't be built on yesterday鈥檚 tech. If we're serious about creating next-generation AI that unlocks the full promise of quantum computing, then we must build quantum-native models鈥攄esigned for quantum, from the ground up.

Around this time last year, we introduced Quixer, a state-of-the-art quantum-native transformer. Today, we鈥檙e thrilled to announce a major milestone: one year on, Quixer is now running natively on quantum hardware.

Why this matters: Quantum AI, born native

This marks a turning point for the industry: realizing quantum-native AI opens a world of possibilities.

Classical transformers revolutionized AI. They power everything from ChatGPT to real-time translation, computer vision, drug discovery, and algorithmic trading. Now, Quixer sets the stage for a similar leap 鈥 but for quantum-native computation. Because quantum computers differ fundamentally from classical computers, we expect a whole new host of valuable applications to emerge. 聽

Achieving that future requires models that are efficient, scalable, and actually run on today鈥檚 quantum hardware.

That鈥檚 what we鈥檝e built.

What makes Quixer different?

Until Quixer, quantum transformers were the result of a brute force 鈥渃opy-paste鈥 approach: taking the math from a classical model and putting it onto a quantum circuit. However, this approach does not account for the considerable differences between quantum and classical architectures, leading to substantial resource requirements.

Quixer is different: it鈥檚 not a translation 鈥 it's an innovation.

With Quixer, our team introduced an explicitly quantum transformer, built from the ground up using quantum algorithmic primitives. Because Quixer is tailored for quantum circuits, it's more resource efficient than most competing approaches.

As quantum computing advances toward fault tolerance, Quixer is built to scale with it.

What鈥檚 next for Quixer?

We鈥檝e already deployed Quixer on real-world data: genomic sequence analysis, a high-impact classification task in biotech. We're happy to report that its performance is already approaching that of classical models, even in this first implementation.

This is just the beginning.

Looking ahead, we鈥檒l explore using Quixer anywhere classical transformers have proven to be useful; such as language modeling, image classification, quantum chemistry, and beyond. More excitingly, we expect use cases to emerge that are quantum-specific, impossible on classical hardware.

This milestone isn鈥檛 just about one model. It鈥檚 a signal that the quantum AI era has begun, and that 黑料社 is leading the charge with real results, not empty hype.

Stay tuned. The revolution is only getting started.

Teleporting to new heights

黑料社 has once again raised the bar鈥攕etting a record in teleportation, and advancing our leadership in the race toward universal fault-tolerant quantum computing.

Last year, we demonstrating the first-ever fault-tolerant teleportation of a logical qubit. At the time, we outlined how crucial teleportation is to realize large-scale fault tolerant quantum computers. Given the high degree of system performance and capabilities required to run the protocol (e.g., multiple qubits, high-fidelity state-preparation, entangling operations, mid-circuit measurement, etc.), teleportation is recognized as an excellent measure of system maturity.

Today we鈥檙e building on last year鈥檚 breakthrough, having recently achieved a record logical teleportation fidelity of 99.82% 鈥 up from 97.5% in last year鈥檚 result. What鈥檚 more, our logical qubit teleportation fidelity now exceeds our physical qubit teleportation fidelity, passing the break-even point that establishes our H2 system as the gold standard for complex quantum operations.

Figure 1: Fidelity of two-bit state teleportation for physical qubit experiments and logical qubit experiments using the d=3 color code (Steane code). The same QASM programs that were ran during March 2024 on the 黑料社's H2-1 device were reran on the same device on April to March 2025. Thanks to the improvements made to H2-1 from 2024 to 2025, physical error rates have been reduced leading to increased fidelity for both the physical and logical level teleportation experiments. The results imply a logical error rate that is 2.3 times smaller than the physical error rate while being statistically well separated, thus indicating the logical fidelities are below break-even for teleportation.

This progress reflects the strength and flexibility of our Quantum Charge Coupled Device (QCCD) architecture. The native high fidelity of our QCCD architecture enables us to perform highly complex demonstrations like this that nobody else has yet to match. Further, our ability to perform conditional logic and real-time decoding was crucial for implementing the Steane error correction code used in this work, and our all-to-all connectivity was essential for performing the high-fidelity transversal gates that drove the protocol.

Teleportation schemes like this allow us to 鈥渢rade space for time,鈥 meaning that we can do quantum error correction more quickly, reducing our time to solution. Additionally, teleportation enables long-range communication during logical computation, which translates to higher connectivity in logical algorithms, improving computational power.

This demonstration underscores our ongoing commitment to reducing logical error rates, which is critical for realizing the promise of quantum computing. 黑料社 continues to lead in quantum hardware performance, algorithms, and error correction鈥攁nd we鈥檒l extend our leadership come the launch of our next generation system, Helios, in just a matter of months.
