Today, at IQM we are launching a major upgrade to our cloud quantum computing platform, IQM Resonance. The goal is to accelerate quantum research and software development by providing more powerful tools and, crucially, greater access to advanced hardware.

To empower advanced users and researchers, we've added a host of new features, including a new freemium plan to democratize access:

Access to our 54-qubit Crystal system: We're making our powerful Crystal 54-qubit quantum computer available on the platform.For a limited time, also available for users on our new freemium Starter Tier.

Pulse-Level Access: For those who need to go beyond standard gate-based programming, you can now directly program pulse schedules to conduct fine-tuned experiments and explore novel quantum operations.

Advanced Error Handling: We're rolling out crucial error suppression and mitigation strategies, starting with dynamical decoupling to protect qubits from environmental noise. This allows for more precise and reliable experimental results.

QAOA Library: A new Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) library is now available, enabling researchers to quickly build, test, and optimize circuits for combinatorial optimization problems.

New SDK Default: We've integrated Qrisp as our default SDK. While we continue to support popular frameworks like Qiskit, Cirq, and Cuda Quantum, we've found Qrisp offers significant performance advantages in terms of gate-counts and compiler scaling.

Our aim with Resonance 2.0 is to simplify the development process and provide a consistent, powerful foundation for innovation. We believe that by combining accessibility with advanced control, we can help the community push the boundaries of quantum computing.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and answer any questions you might have.
