Conductor Quantum announced Coda, a natural language interface for quantum computing. The tool enables users to type a problem description into a box. Coda then builds the quantum circuit, verifies the code and runs it on real quantum computers.

The company stated that quantum computing will not scale if every program is a hand written circuit. The future is describing what you want a quantum computer to do and letting the system handle the rest.

Coda includes a learn mode to help users new to quantum get started. It offers access to Rigetti's S14 84 qubit quantum computer. Simulations up to 34 qubits are supported by NVIDIA cu-Quantum.

Brandon and Joel from Conductor Quantum made the announcement. Brandon is CEO and was previously a postdoc at Oxford with multiple Nature journal publications on silicon quantum computing. He developed early AI systems for automated qubit formation and holds a PhD from Oxford.

Joel is CTO. He built machine learning based control software for superconducting qubits at QuantrolOx with prior roles at Quantum Motion and C12. He holds an MSc in Physics from UCL.

The company said it is building Coda because it wants everyone to be able to access a quantum computer from their desk as soon as possible.
