QuEra Computing

QuEra Computing is a Boston-area neutral-atom quantum computing company, founded in 2021 by scientists from Harvard and MIT. Its flagship system, Aquila, is a 256-qubit field-programmable analog neutral-atom quantum processor that has been publicly available since November 2022 through Amazon Braket and through a direct Premium Access channel. QuEra develops Bloqade, an open-source software stack for neutral-atom quantum computing delivered as a Python SDK (Bloqade Python) and as the original Bloqade.jl Julia package, along with surrounding tooling for circuits, analog control, atom shuttling, decoders, and tensor-network simulation. The company is building toward fault-tolerant quantum computing with its Gemini-class next-generation systems and has demonstrated logical-level magic state distillation on neutral-atom hardware. QuEra works with HPC centers, national labs (NERSC, Los Alamos), DARPA, NEDO/AIST, NVIDIA, AWS, BCG X, Deloitte, Classiq, Kipu Quantum, Wolfram Research, and enterprise customers including BP, BASF, Merck, and Amgen. The system is consumed via the Bloqade SDK or AWS Braket; QuEra does not currently expose a public REST API to its QPU.

human only

Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles QuEra Computing the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — QuEra Computing scores 14.8/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 7/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile QuEra Computing

Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for QuEra Computing. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.

Security Posture 1

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
