Strangeworks, Inc. describes itself as a company that began in quantum computing and now delivers optimization systems for enterprises and governments. Its website says the company officially launched in early 2018 to build software infrastructure for quantum computing, and that it still considers itself a quantum company while using classical HPC, quantum-inspired techniques, and AI to produce results today.
The company’s current positioning centers on “Heterogeneous Hybrid Compute” and applied optimization across areas such as planning, logistics, simulation, prediction, and adaptation. The Strangeworks homepage says Strangeworks offers embedded experts, an always-on agent called Aura, and access to 50+ solvers and compute resources through an ecosystem of 40+ technology partners.
