What we do

Solvers, custom solutions and quantum optimization

Optimization solvers

Scheduling, routing, packing and assignment on a high-performance core with learned heuristics on top. Our solvers hold best-known solutions on public benchmark sets, and sequence crews, machines, fleets and loads in minutes rather than hours.

Custom solutions

Optimization engines built for a specific domain: your problem modeled, validated against historical data, and delivered as production-ready software with clean APIs, documentation and integration support.

Quantum optimization

An award-winning approach: first place in the Airbus and BMW Group Quantum Computing Challenge, semifinalist in the XPRIZE Quantum Applications competition, and lead of an NQCC SparQ consortium with Airbus, DNV and ORCA Computing.

Better decisions, faster.
