What Entanglement does

Entanglement, Inc. is a U.S.-based quantum-AI company founded in 2017 and headquartered in Miami, operating a platform-plus-portfolio model built on the Quantum Logic Core™ (QLC). QLC is a productized quantum-logic optimization engine that fuses quantum-logic based optimization with machine learning, deep learning, and AI, delivered as a software engine accessible via cloud API and on-premises container. It runs on classical hardware today while remaining hardware-agnostic and designed to absorb future fault-tolerant quantum hardware. The principal research lineage descends from Dr. Fred Glover (originator of Tabu Search, U.S. National Academy of Engineering, John von Neumann Theory Prize), with Dr. Tony Cox as a principal researcher.

The company operates six wholly-owned product companies, each with its own market and P&L, all built on the QLC substrate: seQure (cybersecurity with Ground-Truth™ and DCAP, validated at 120M inferences per second by the U.S. Army); Hyper Intelligence™ (AI training, inference, and data-center optimization); Storage Platform (sovereign data with post-quantum cryptography); Maritech Intelligence Systems (maritime domain awareness with MIST™, HX-1, and MADEN™, formed from the merger with Applied Ocean Sciences in January 2026); Applied Ocean Sciences (acoustics and ocean modeling); and Prepaire™ (biosurveillance and public health intelligence). Customers are primarily U.S. defense and government, with two CRADA-validated engagements (U.S. Army and DoD) documented on the public record.

Revenue mechanics are predominantly subscription/recurring across product lines, with quote-based pricing for defense and sovereign contracts. Distribution combines direct enterprise field sales, QLC's cloud API and on-prem container channels, membership in the Oracle Defense Ecosystem, and a strategic MOU with Cassava Technologies covering Africa and the Middle East. QLC is described as revenue-bearing and generally available from 2025 onward, and the company is additionally pursuing POSTBIT—a third computational primitive beyond transistor and qubit—in a multi-decade R&D phase under confidential investor and sovereign briefings.

Core offering

Entanglement builds and sells the Quantum Logic Core (QLC), a productized quantum-logic optimization engine delivered as a software engine with a cloud API and on-premise container. QLC fuses quantum-logic based optimization with machine learning, deep learning, and AI to solve combinatorial, scheduling, and resource-allocation problems at scales where classical solvers fail. It is sold directly into defense, government, maritime, and life-sciences customers and powers six vertically integrated product companies covering cybersecurity (seQure), AI infrastructure (Hyper Intelligence), sovereign data and post-quantum storage, maritime intelligence (Maritech), ocean sensing (Applied Ocean Sciences), and biosurveillance (Prepaire).

Product overview

Entanglement, Inc. is a next-generation quantum and AI company that operates as a platform-plus-portfolio structure. The company was founded in 2017 and is built on the Quantum Logic Core™ (QLC), a productized quantum-logic optimization engine that serves as the foundational substrate for all product companies. The portfolio consists of six product companies: seQure (cybersecurity with Ground-Truth™ and DCAP products), Hyper Intelligence™ (AI infrastructure optimization), Storage Platform (sovereign data with post-quantum cryptography), Maritech Intelligence Systems (maritime intelligence with MIST™, HX-1, and MADEN™ products), Applied Ocean Sciences (acquired acoustics and ocean modeling specialists), and Prepaire™ (biosurveillance and public health intelligence). Each product company has its own market, customers, and P&L, but all are built atop the shared Quantum Logic Core™.

Direct peers

• Zapata Computing: Zapata (now Zapata AI) develops quantum-inspired and classical AI software for optimization and simulation, including industrial use cases in defense and logistics — the same verticals where Entanglement has CRADA validation.
• D-Wave Systems: D-Wave is the most direct peer — a pure-play quantum optimization company whose annealing hardware and quantum-hybrid solvers target exactly the combinatorial, scheduling, and resource-allocation problem set that QLC addresses. Both companies sell quantum-inspired optimization to enterprise and government customers.
• Multiverse Computing: Multiverse is a quantum-AI software company applying quantum and quantum-inspired algorithms to optimization, simulation, and machine learning in finance, energy, and defense — directly overlapping QLC's defense, logistics, and life-sciences deployment profile.
• 1QBit: 1QBit is a quantum software company focused on optimization, simulation, and machine learning for enterprise and research customers — overlapping QLC's hardware-agnostic, quantum-ready software delivery model.
• QC Ware: QC Ware builds quantum and quantum-inspired software for optimization and machine learning, with an enterprise SaaS delivery model that closely mirrors QLC's cloud API + on-prem container approach for similar Fortune 500 and government customers.

Broad incumbents

• IonQ: IonQ is a publicly-traded full-stack quantum computing incumbent offering trapped-ion hardware, cloud access, and algorithm software — a broader portfolio than Entanglement's software-only stack, but targeting similar quantum-optimization and quantum-AI workloads.
• Quantinuum: Quantinuum (Honeywell/Cambridge Quantum) is a broad quantum incumbent combining trapped-ion hardware with a full software stack and chemistry/optimization applications — competing with QLC at the algorithm and platform layer across enterprise and government customers.
• Darktrace: Darktrace is the publicly-traded incumbent in AI-based anomaly detection for cybersecurity and OT/IT environments — directly comparable to seQure Ground-Truth on continuous anomaly detection, zero-trust monitoring, and enterprise/government deployments.

Emerging players

• Classiq: Classiq provides a quantum software development platform for designing and compiling quantum algorithms, with partial overlap to QLC's quantum-AI and optimization tooling — narrower focus on developer enablement rather than the broad product portfolio Entanglement ships.
• Strangeworks: Strangeworks is a quantum computing platform offering cloud access, developer tools, and integration across multiple quantum hardware backends — adjacent to QLC's cloud API delivery model and enterprise-quantum-deployment positioning.
