The hope and hype that have surrounded quantum computing for the past decade are about to deliver some groundbreaking real-world results. AQSolotl’s flagship product , CHRONOS-Q—a quantum computing technology developed in collaboration with Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the National University of Singapore (NUS)—will open quantum computing to everyday industries.
CHRONOS-Q bridges the gap between conventional computing systems and quantum computers, serving as an efficient translator that opens up a variety of practical business applications.
Unlike other quantum controllers, CHRONOS-Q delivers exceptional speed in a compact and cost-effective design. The technology enables real-time feedback for smooth quantum operations, taking quantum computing out of its traditional home in the laboratory and into the wider world.
A startup rooted in academic innovation
AQSolotl’s products may be aimed at transforming the business community, but our journey has been deeply intertwined with academia. As a startup, we emerged from years of rigorous research at NTU and NUS, with researchers at the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) also playing a key role in the system’s development.
The backing of NTU’s Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E) initiative, along with equity stakes held by both universities, has defined AQSolotl as a powerful symbol of academic-industry collaboration. Mentorship from seasoned researchers and access to cutting-edge facilities have allowed us to move CHRONOS-Q smoothly from lab to market.
Understanding CHRONOS-Q
CHRONOS-Q allows the efficient and dependable control of quantum systems via standard laptops or desktops. As a result, it dramatically lowers the technical barriers for engineers and developers, making quantum computing a far more accessible—and practical—technology.
Key Features:

Applications across diverse sectors

From advanced quantum research to exploring the concept of multiverses, quantum computing has operated in rather limited, albeit significant, fields to date. CHRONOS-Q is about to change all that, bringing the power of quantum computing to multiple industries.
Target sectors include:

AQSolotl’s commercialization of quantum computing technology has moved along a strategic path. The intellectual property for CHRONOS-Q was refined over three years and piloted in setups at the National Quantum Computing Hub and NTU’s Nanyang Quantum Hub. With the technology rooted in rigorous research and validated through pilot programs, AQSolotl is delivering a system that meets the highest standards of performance and reliability.
Turning Singapore into a global quantum hub
The launch of CHRONOS-Q further cements Singapore’s reputation as a global leader in quantum research. AQSolotl is one of eight startups connected to Singapore’s Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT), highlighting the country’s focus on developing a world-leading quantum ecosystem.
“With the founding of AQSolotl,” says Professor Chen Tsuhan, Deputy President of Innovation & Enterprise at NUS, ”we anticipate they will actively contribute back to the ecosystem and drive global advancements in quantum computing technologies."
