Rigetti Computing Inc

Rigetti Computing is a full-stack quantum computing company that builds quantum computers based on superconducting qubits. Its systems achieve gate speeds of 50-70 nanoseconds.

Its main offerings are:
- On-premises quantum computing systems ranging from 9 to 108 qubits, sold to national laboratories and quantum computing centers.
- The Cepheus 36-qubit to 108-qubit systems, built on Rigetti's proprietary chiplet technology and including its control electronics. The flagship Cepheus-1-108Q tiles twelve 9-qubit chiplets together.
- The 9-qubit Novera QPU, designed to plug into a customer's existing cryogenic and control systems for the broader R&D community.
- Cloud access to its quantum computers through the Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services (QCS) platform, which integrates with public and private clouds for enterprise, government and research clients.

Rigetti designs and manufactures its chips in-house at its Fab-1 quantum device fabrication facility. Revenue comes from system sales, cloud access and government research contracts. In 2026 the company signed a definitive agreement for an award of up to $100 million from the U.S. Department of Commerce under the CHIPS Act. The award funds work on readout electronics, cryogenic capacity and chip fabrication, and the Department took a minority, non-controlling equity stake in the company. Updated Nov 10, 2026
