🎉 Happy #WorldQuantumDay! Today, we celebrate the science driving the next computing revolution and reflect on our highlights from an incredible year at Riverlane👇 If you want to help make utility-scale #quantumcomputing possible, we’re hiring: www.riverlane.com/jobs
What's changed at Riverlane in the last year? We're grown faster, gone further and shipped bigger. Here are some highlights...We grew our team! We welcomed 71 new staff across our UK, US and Delft offices.Hello Delft! Led by Professor Barbara Terhal, our Delft office opened in December 2025 and is focused on applying AI/ML to advance quantum error correction. There were lots more exciting milestones. April 2025: Joined the DARPA QBI and UK Quantum Missions. June 2025: Our transversal logic paper advances research on AMOs. September 2025: Deploy Deltaflow at Oak Ridge National Lab + launch our Deltakit SDK. December 2025: We unveil the world’s first hardware decoder. March 2026: Launch the Riverlane QEC Technology Roadmap. April 2026: Deltaflow achieves 10x faster latency than Google

#QuantumErrorCorrection is hard, but a softer approach can help! Instead of relying on 0/1 outcomes, soft decoders use rich analogue readout data to better judge when a qubit measurement is uncertain, leading to stronger error suppression with fewer qubits 🔗 iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...
