We believe science should be beautiful and interactive.

Qubi puts the elegance of quantum mechanics where you can see it, touch it, and share it.

Our Mission

So, we crafted a beautiful device that exactly mimics quantum qubits.

Most people think quantum is confusing because they haven’t seen anything that acts quantum.

Learn Quantum

Optional: The most intuitive quantum education course on earth.

Included with Qubi: Explore the foundations, learn how to program a quantum computer, and ponder the philosophical implications of quantum physics.

Entanglement

The colors illuminate the most mysterious concept in science: entanglement.

Entanglement feels paradoxical—even Einstein called it “spooky.” Qubi lets you experiment with the correlations instead of just reading about them.

Hover over the spheres below to watch matching colors jump between qubits whenever a measurement collapses one of them.

Educators and partners on why Qubi matters

The people building the quantum future are already using Qubi to explain the Bloch sphere, demystify algorithms, and bring more minds into the field.

Everyone has some visual reasoning skills that can be engaged to teach Bloch sphere representation of qubits. Using a tangible, interactive sphere maximizes that engagement. It provides an access point for anyone, even kids. This is the most intuitive learning tool for teaching qubits I’ve seen.

It’s time to stop calling quantum ‘counterintuitive.’ Qubi makes it make sense.

Qubi is the clearest way to visualize quantum systems and has a chance to revolutionize how we communicate (quantum) concepts. It just makes sense. It’s obviously a fantastic way to bring quantum into more minds.
Tinker with history

The Qubi app guides you through quantum's greatest paradoxes.

Explore the strangest and most counterintuitive discoveries—from teleportation to nonlocality.

Bit commitment

For the curious

The perfect science gift

Qubi is a unique and memorable gift for any science lover. It's great for kids and adults alike.

“It’s so nice to finally see something (quantum) that’s down-to-earth and accessible.”

Josephine D. | Quantum Technologies Consultant

“I think Qubi is simply a brilliant idea for introducing many people to the principles of quantum.”

FAQs

Do I need prior physics knowledge?+

No. Qubi will teach you all you need to know. Ages 8+ can follow the guided lessons. Qubi is designed for complete beginners and includes step-by-step learning modules that make quantum concepts accessible to everyone.

Is this a real quantum computer?+

No, but the spheres act like the mouse for a real quantum computer. Whatever you do on the spheres will be run on a real quantum computer and sent back to you. You're controlling actual quantum hardware through an intuitive interface.

How durable is it?+

While qubi is fun to play with and will survive reasonable drops, it's not designed to be thrown at a wall. It's a bit more durable than a cell phone.

What's the price?+

You can check the pricing on the kickstarter page! Early-bird backers get lower prices, and they run out fast - so it's hard to keep pricing updated on this page.

When will it be available?+

You can pre-order starting October 14th, and we will do our best to get you your Qubis before Spring 2026!
