# Agnostiq

[Agnostiq](https://agnostiq.ai/) is a platform that helps streamline the tools needed to build quantum solutions for  the future. 

There is an open source version called [covalent](https://www.covalent.xyz/) as well which is worth trying as well.

Covalent allows for an easy workflow environment as well and can be used to further coordinate your quantum work as you delve further. 

---

### Creating the  Covalent Workflow in steps: 

1. Go to  your working codebase 
2. The cool  thing about Covalen  is that it is entirely modular, *remember to work with your  functions as module*
3. To your desired  function module, add the `@ct.electron` decorator 



### LightSolver - 
based on lasers. Quantum inspired hardware and software setup. 
- a quantum simulator is available to connect to the computer itself 
- is an enterprise solution to sell to commercial enttiies, boost perfomance and is an optimization solution. 
- 2SAT  problem - connected to all papers on website

#### QCTRL - Michael J Bierchuk 

- research translation, bringing into commercialization 
- NYIT presentation - educators can bring Black Opal certification and bringing in a software where educators can arrange certain components in whatever way they would like. 
- tip - don't have a cofounder, that is what michae did 
- Even though I only had heard a few words from him,

## SandboxAQ - 

met with a person 
- there is a growing need, they are a startup 
- sounds like the person doesnt really like Jack very much 
- there needs to be focus  at the company 
- what is more improtant? the R &D as that is where much of the technology innovation is from, and then prdicticzation 
- they offere residencies and internships for students in academia

### IBM Quantum -

met those who worked  with ATOS, Dell and IBM, computers 
- many areas to work in for compiters 
- there is the QKD 
- there is the performance 
- there is the error correcton 
- and there is the QKD and security  protocol.
