Super.tech

Super.tech is a quantum software company that specializes in bridging the gap between quantum applications and hardware. Founded in 2020 by Pranav Gokhale and Fred Chong as a spinout from the University of Chicago, the company developed proprietary cross-layer optimization techniques to enhance quantum computing performance. Its flagship platforms include SuperstaQ, a hardware-agnostic software stack that connects applications to various quantum hardware, and SupermarQ, an application-centric, open-source benchmarking suite designed to measure quantum device performance on real-world use cases. Super.tech was acquired by the quantum ecosystem leader Infleqtion (formerly ColdQuanta) in May 2022.

The company’s solutions address critical performance hurdles in quantum computing by utilizing pulse-level optimization, transpilation, and error mitigation, which helps users maximize their quantum investments without requiring deep specialized physics knowledge. Their technology is used by organizations ranging from national research laboratories to Fortune 500 companies for strategic quantum initiatives. Following its acquisition, Super.tech’s team established a Chicago-based office for Infleqtion, where they continue to integrate their software platforms with hardware systems like the Hilbert quantum computer to accelerate commercial adoption and improve execution efficiency across the industry.
