Open Quantum gives every student $50 of free QPU compute, sub-minute queue times, and native Qiskit and PennyLane support — so your whole class can run on real quantum computers from day one.
Teaching quantum computing is far more effective when students can run circuits on real quantum processors instead of only simulators. Open Quantum makes that practical for an entire class: every student account comes with $50 of free quantum compute, which goes a long way for coursework built from small circuits. Students submit jobs through Qiskit, PennyLane, or raw OpenQASM files in the browser, and results typically return in under a minute — compared to the multi-hour free-tier queues common on IBM Quantum. The result is a classroom where students can actually iterate on real hardware during a lab session, not wait until the next week.
Every student account includes $50 of free QPU compute — enough to cover a semester of typical coursework with no credit card required.
Queue times are regularly under a minute, versus hours on IBM free tiers, so students can iterate live during a lab.
Native Qiskit and PennyLane plugins, or submit raw QASM through the web. Your existing course materials work unchanged.
