Neutral Atom Quantum Computing

Neutral atom quantum computing company building scalable quantum systems using optically trapped atoms.

About

Atom Computing is a Berkeley-based quantum computing company that develops quantum computers using optically trapped neutral atoms — a different physical approach from superconducting qubits (IBM, Google) and trapped ions (IonQ). Neutral atom systems use lasers to individually manipulate thousands of atoms simultaneously, offering a potential path to much larger qubit counts than competing technologies. Atom Computing's Phoenix system was the first neutral atom computer to demonstrate 1,000+ qubit operation, a milestone in scaling quantum hardware. The neutral atom approach enables all-to-all qubit connectivity — any qubit can interact with any other — unlike superconducting systems where qubits can only interact with immediate neighbors, simplifying algorithm design. The company was founded in 2018 and raised over $60M from investors including Innovation Endeavors, Prelude Ventures, and Venrock. Atom Computing announced a partnership with Microsoft to integrate its neutral atom hardware with Azure Quantum. It competes with QuEra Computing and Pasqal in the neutral atom quantum computing market.

AI Agents

Adept AI raised $415M to pioneer computer-use AI agents; its core research and agent team moved to Amazon in 2024 in a landmark talent acquisition while the company continues developing ACT-1 for enterprise automation.

About

Adept AI was founded in 2022 by a team of former OpenAI, DeepMind, and Google Brain researchers to build AI that can take actions on computers — navigating software interfaces, filling forms, and executing multi-step workflows in any application. Its ACT-1 model demonstrated the ability to control web browsers and desktop applications through natural language instructions, pioneering the computer-use agent paradigm that Anthropic later commercialized with Claude's computer use feature.
