PsiQuantum is building fault-tolerant quantum computers using silicon photonics to solve complex problems beyond classical computing capabilities. The company launched Construct, its software suite for designing and optimizing fault-tolerant quantum algorithms, in September 2025. In 2024, DARPA advanced PsiQuantum to phase two of the US2QC program after evaluating its photonic quantum chips. The technology targets applications in climate modeling, drug discovery, and cryptography.
