Quantum Machines announced the release of Qualibrate (which the company spells QUAlibrate), an open-source framework for calibrating quantum computers. It cuts quantum computer calibration time from hours to minutes. By addressing one of quantum computing’s most critical scaling bottlenecks, Quantum Machines‘ new framework enables fast, modular calibration and fosters a global ecosystem for sharing and advancing calibration protocols. By creating an open ecosystem, Qualibrate enables researchers and companies worldwide to build upon each other’s advances, accelerating the path to practical quantum computers. To properly initialize and maintain a quantum computer’s performance, calibration must be performed not just once, but frequently during operation to compensate for system drift. Qualibrate enables researchers and quantum engineers to create reusable calibration components, combine them into complex workflows, and execute calibrations through an intuitive interface. The platform abstracts away hardware complexities, allowing teams to focus on quantum system logic rather than low-level details. Qualibrate’s open-source nature and modular architecture mean that when researchers develop new calibration protocols, these innovations can be immediately shared, validated, and built upon by the broader quantum computing community. Companies can also develop proprietary solutions on top of Qualibrate that leverage advanced approaches like quantum system simulation and deep learning algorithms. This creates an ecosystem where fundamental calibration advances can be shared openly and enables specialized tools that push the boundaries of performance. Along with the framework, Quantum Machines is releasing its first calibration graph for superconducting quantum computers, providing a complete calibration solution that can be immediately deployed and customized.
