Atlas · Access

Fair, democratized access — not getting rich.

The whole point of Atlas is that good triage shouldn't be locked behind a paywall. The engine is open and runs on your own hardware with no limits. Where there is a hosted cost, we charge only the real cost — never a markup designed to extract.

Launch offer — 1 month of full functionality, free. Plus a 1–3 month pilot, free, for teams who want to evaluate in earnest — without us giving away the moat (the calibration corpus and measured-hardware datasets stay ours). Adoption first; pricing comes after the free period. The goal is to earn a place in your workflow, not to monetise day one.

"How much QPU do I save?" — the honest bridge

The honest answer is a decision rule, not a savings number we can't stand behind. Atlas tells you which side of the frontier a circuit is on; the cost implication follows from that — and only the "tractable" side carries a figure we can demonstrate.

Tractable → don't buy

Atlas exhibits a concrete classical method (Clifford witness, exact MPS, feasible contraction, statevector that fits). The avoided spend is the QPU/HPC run you would have paid for — demonstrable, because we can show the method.

Out of reach → verify

No cheap classical route survives the checks → candidate for the hardware. Atlas does not quote a saving here: it cannot prove you need a QPU (that's BQP≠BPP). It flags "verify," never "guaranteed advantage."

MEDIUM → abstain

The evidence splits. Atlas declines rather than guess. No cost claim is made on a case it cannot certify — the abstention is itself the honest output.

Why we keep the cost number scoped. A representative published-pricing example — one avoided IonQ Forte run (11,970 shots) ≈ $958 — is the shape of the saving on the tractable side, not a per-customer guarantee. Your real savings depend on your circuit mix and your QPU/HPC contracts, which is exactly what a pilot measures on your own workload. We will not publish a blended "% QPU saved" we can't source.

We only charge for real cost

No invented fees. When Atlas costs money to run, it's because something downstream genuinely costs money — and that's all you pay, plus the platform that keeps it running.

Your outputs → API

Sending your circuit outputs to the API for interpretation has a real per-call cost.

API tokens (Claude)

The natural-language interpretation layer is metered tokens — we pass through the actual cost.

Platform use

Hosting, compute, and uptime for the web tier. The thin layer that keeps the free web alive.

Web vs. Full, in one line: the web tier is quota + no local arsenal; the full tier is the complete engine running on your own hardware with no throttle. Same verdict, different ceiling.


The philosophy. Access for everyone, a fair return, and growth that comes from adoption rather than lock-in. We charge the real cost — your-outputs-to-API + API tokens + platform — and nothing more. From people like us to large organisations, the price should be fair at every scale. We are not here to get rich; we are here to make good triage normal, and to keep it honest. The independence of the verdict is never for sale — whoever submits a circuit must never be able to pay for a favourable certificate.
