Material scientists, researchers in the chemical industry, academia, and teams in life sciences and pharma.
- Software licensing & SaaS subscriptions for the HQS Quantum Software stack (tiered by compute-hours, number of users, and support level)
Direct website (quantumsimulations.de) - product pages, documentation, contact form · GitHub repositories - distribution of open-source libraries, issue tracking, community contributions · YouTube channel - demo videos, webinars, case studies for visual learners
TRUMPF Group (via Trumpf Venture II GmbH)
R&D for quantum models, software development, and hosting infrastructure.
Sophisticated quantum-level models of molecular and material properties and specialized software development capabilities.
Developing software solutions that incorporate quantum models to accelerate innovation in science and industry.
Self-service developer portal - extensive docs, tutorials, and API references for independent adoption · Dedicated technical account managers for enterprise contracts → personalized support and roadmap alignment · Community-driven forums & GitHub issues - foster peer-to-peer help and gather feature requests
Differentiates via quantum-level accuracy and speed versus classical simulation tools; competitors include traditional spectroscopy software vendors.
Need to move from complex spectra and spin models to actionable decisions with high accuracy, speed, and interpretability.
- Monetize the open-source ecosystem more aggressively - introduce a “premium plugin marketplace” (e.g., specialized chemistry modules) to
The TRUMPF partnership provides critical validation and potential distribution leverage, while open-source channels build a defensible developer community moat.
GitHub distribution lowers customer acquisition costs for the SaaS model, while TRUMPF's backing de-risks the high R&D costs of quantum modeling.
- Strong academic pedigree - founded by KIT physicists, giving deep domain expertise and credibility in the quantum research community
