Thesis
Xanadu builds room-temperature photonic quantum computers and maintains PennyLane, a widely used open-source library for quantum machine learning. The bet is that photonics offers a manufacturable path to fault-tolerant scale without dilution refrigerators.
Catalysts
- Progress toward fault-tolerant photonic architecture
- PennyLane ecosystem adoption as a software moat
- Government and enterprise pilot contracts
- Funding rounds or eventual public listing
