Has anyone here tried working with any of the newer quantum hardware startups? There seem to be a lot popping up lately, not just the big guys like IBM and Google. I’m seeing names like Atom Computing, PsiQuantum, Quantinuum, and more.
Are these startups offering actual machines to access, or are they more like research collaborations? How do their systems compare to the more “established” cloud quantum computers? I’m wondering whether it’s possible/easy for beginners or students to get access to these platforms or if everything is still super closed off and NDA-heavy. Any recommendations for interesting startups to follow or try out? Would love to hear about anyone’s experiences.
