Introducing the IBM Quantum Experience, the world’s first quantum computing platform delivered via the IBM Cloud.
On Wednesday, May 4, for the first time ever, IBM is making quantum computing available via the cloud to anyone interested in hands-on access to an IBM quantum processor, making it easier for researchers and the scientific community to accelerate innovations, and help discover new applications for this technology. This is the beginning of the quantum age of computing and the latest advance from IBM towards building a universal quantum computer. A universal quantum computer, once built, will represent one of the greatest milestones in the history of information technology and has the potential to solve certain problems we couldn’t solve, and will never be able to solve, with today’s classical computers.

Introducing the IBM Quantum Experience, the world’s first quantum computing platform delivered via the IBM Cloud.
We are in the midst of writing a new chapter in the history of computation. Today, classical physics define our thinking, our experiences, our computers, and ultimately how we process information. The classical model of computing used today is on the verge of reaching its limits. Quantum computing has the potential to solve certain problems that are impossible to unravel using today’s most powerful supercomputers.
The IBM Quantum Experience represents the birth of quantum cloud computing, offering students, researchers, and general science enthusiasts hands-on access to IBM’s experimental cloud-enabled quantum computing platform, and allowing users to run algorithms and experiments, work with quantum bits (qubits), and explore tutorials and simulations around what might be possible with quantum computing.
The results of more than 35 years of IBM Quantum Computing research are now available for exploration at the click of a button. Join us to help accelerate innovation in the quantum field, and help discover new applications for this technology.
