Providers Supported by qbitkit

Currently, qbitkit supports the folowing quantum service vendors:

  • Amazon Web Services Braket
    • US Pricing Formula: \(p=.3t(sv)\)
      • Where \(p\) is the total cost, \(t\) is the number of quantum tasks successfully submitted to an AWS braket hardware device, \(s\) is the number of shots or ‘reads’ for a given quantum circuit or annealing problem, and \(v\) is the vendor-specific cost per-shot or per-‘read’.

    • Supports qbitkit.anneal for D-Wave 2000Q as well as the brand-new Advantage System v1 with over 5000 qubits and 35,000 Josephson Junction couplers, cooled to an insanely cold \(.01mK\).

    • Supports qbitkit.circuit for AWS simulators, as well as industry-leading hardware from Rigetti and IonQ

  • IBM Quantum Experience
    • US Pricing Formula:
      • Free for public machines

      • IBM does not publicly list the pricing of priority access to public systems or access to systems not available to the public.

    • Supports qbitkit.circuit for IBMQ Cloud simulators, as well as whatever IBM Q hardware your account has access to.

  • D-Wave Leap
    • US Pricing Formula:
      • \(p=s+2000h\)
        • Where \(p\) is total cost, \(s\) is any applicable taxes, and \(h\) is the amount of time spent actively using any quantum annealing hardware.

        • Customers with a Canada-based billing address don’t seem to be subject to tax, so if you live in Canada make sure to use \(s=0\) in the above pricing formula.

        • psst AWS Braket is cheaper for small experiments and doesn’t require a monthly plan

    • Supports qbitkit.anneal for D-Wave 2000Q as well as the brand-new Advantage System v1 with over 5000 qubits
