QC82

QC82 is a quantum computing company developing room-temperature photonic quantum computers for large-scale simulations in chemistry and materials science. The company's core innovations are cryogenics-free photon detection technology and low-loss, mass-manufacturable photonic chip architectures that remove the need for extreme cooling infrastructure that limits conventional quantum hardware. QC82's team brings together pioneers in continuous-variable quantum computing, photonic chip design, and advanced photodetection, supported by a growing patent portfolio across quantum state generation, photonic architectures, and room-temperature photon detection. The company raised $1.5M in early financing and published a scalable architecture for fault-tolerant quantum computing in November 2025.
