Quantinuum is tying growth in its Nexus software platform to a multiyear quantum-computing roadmap, reporting 215 organizations in the third quarter as new tools and further releases approach.

Quantinuum launched Nexus in 2024 as a platform for programming, validating, compiling and executing quantum applications. It is available through cloud and on-premises access and is central to the company's longer-term Nexus roadmap, which spans Helios, Sol and Apollo.

The September 2026 release added Guppy FT and Guppy Algorithms to Nexus. Developers can inspect programs in emulation; the tools also support encoding for selected error-correction schemes, and Helios can run programs it supports.

Quantinuum's third-quarter results put Nexus adoption at 215 organizations, up nearly 20% from the previous quarter. The company said users submitted 10 times as many jobs during the 12 months ending in August 2026 as in the 12 months before that.

Quantinuum expects the next Nexus release in December 2026. It plans hybrid applications that can use quantum results as they arrive, along with additional supported error-correction codes and tools for analyzing execution.

The broader roadmap groups work around developing, optimizing and deploying applications. Planned additions include fault-tolerant libraries, resource management and runtime diagnostics, as well as tools to connect quantum workflows with classical computing, high-performance computing, cloud infrastructure and third-party software.

Quantinuum says developing software alongside its hardware can improve application performance and help customers carry their work forward as systems evolve. The company describes its published schedules as subject to change, not guarantees of delivery by particular dates.

Sol remains on track for the second half of 2027, with integration and assembly targeted for the first quarter of that year. Apollo remains targeted for 2029, according to Quantinuum's third-quarter release. The December 2026 Nexus update is the next planned software milestone.
