About the company
Qbraid CO., a minority-owned, Subcontinent Asian American-owned for-profit corporation based in Chicago, Illinois, operates as a federal grant recipient and sub-recipient in the quantum computing and open-source software ecosystem, with no federal contract prime awards. The vendor's federal footprint consists of three awards across two National Science Foundation grant programs, with combined obligations of $499 thousand, positioning Qbraid primarily as a research and software-development partner rather than a traditional services contractor.
Qbraid's core capability centers on quantum computing middleware and open-source software development. The vendor is prime recipient on a $299,965 NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (CFDA 47.084) Phase I POSE (Pathways to Enable Open-Source Ecosystems) award running September 1, 2025 through August 31, 2026, focused on developing and formalizing the qBraid-SDK, a hardware-agnostic, open-source runtime and middleware framework designed to standardize developer interfaces across fragmented quantum computing platforms. The qBraid-SDK currently supports 25 quantum backends and includes a graph-based transpiler enabling conversion between quantum program types. Qbraid also serves as a sub-recipient on two North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University grants (awarded December 2023 and April 2025), where it provides research support, quantum software architecture design, and technical support for variational quantum algorithms, with personnel collaborating directly on quantum software component development and providing access support for quantum hardware and software to NCAT faculty and students.
Customer concentration is entirely within the National Science Foundation, which accounts for all three awards. The vendor faces one award with ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, creating recompete risk on the active NCAT sub-award relationship. Qbraid's federal posture reflects early-stage research-grant engagement rather than operational contracting scale, with emphasis on open-source quantum computing infrastructure development and academic partnership.
