The brief

Analyst view

• Demonstrated 200-ion chain in July 2025, validating trap engineering for 1,000-qubit systems.
• Raised $140M Series A (December 2025 + April 2026 extension) for Perspective system and optical technology development.
• Plans Perspective launch with 1,000 qubits demonstrating quantum advantage by 2027.

Technical approach

As reported

2D architecture

Multi-core trapped-ion system

2D structure with optically segmented cores operating independently, enabling 1,000 simultaneous two-qubit operations.

Optical segmentation

Laser-defined core boundaries

Focused laser beams divide ion chains into independent cores for parallel computation, supporting tens of cores working simultaneously.

Long ion chains

Advanced trap-chip engineering

Stabilizes chains of 200+ ions without zig-zag instabilities, reducing heating rates and stray magnetic fields.
