Why QuantFenix: Born from the ashes of old-school compute

QuantFenix automatically selects the most cost-effective backend across classical + quantum for your optimization problems - without burning your budget.

QuantFenix picks the most cost‑effective backend across classical and quantum for each run. You get strong solutions, predictable spend, and an audit‑ready report.

FinOps first. Clear trade‑offs. No hype.


The problem we solve

When you model an optimization task (for example, the best route for 50 deliveries), you run into:

  • Many backends: OR‑Tools (local), IBM Quantum, AWS Braket, Rigetti, D‑Wave, simulators — each with its own API, cost, and latency
  • Hard trade‑offs: cost vs. solution quality vs. runtime — and they move over time
  • Operational friction: different SDKs and credentials, budget control, and reproducibility

With QuantFenix you get:

  • One unified runtime and API
  • Policy‑based selection: e.g., 60% cost, 30% latency, 10% quality
  • Budget guards: hard/soft caps with stop or warn on thresholds
  • Reproducible runs: signed manifests for every execution
  • Offline baselines: OR‑Tools always available locally

How it works

Step 1 — Upload your data

CSV/Parquet for VRP, scheduling, or portfolio optimization. Your account, your credentials (BYOC). No lock‑in.

Step 2 — Continuous comparisons with canary runs

We compare backends under your policy and budget. We auto‑route based on quality, cost, and latency, with controlled exploration.

Step 3 — Get an audit‑ready report

Every run produces a PDF + JSON manifest: cost, runtime, quality metrics, and a recommended policy. Share it with Finance, CIO, and Legal.

Key concepts

  • Continuous optimization: canary runs and budget guardrails adapt to changing conditions
  • Smart routing: optimize quality, cost, and latency with controlled exploration
  • Audit‑ready manifests: full traceability and reproducibility for every run

Why QuantFenix (value)

  • Cost first — up to 20% savings on selected pilot workloads; typical results shown in benchmarks
  • Adaptive by default — cloud prices, queues, and QPU noise shift weekly; we adapt automatically
  • BYOC — you own the keys (AWS Braket, IBM, etc.). We orchestrate
  • Vendor‑agnostic — avoid lock‑in; route by quality/cost/latency
  • Audit‑ready — every run has a manifest for full traceability
  • KPI program — pilots set targets and scope in writing before start

Feature highlights

Budget Guards

Set max cost and time. We stop before spend spirals.

Hybrid Routing

Policies choose between classical/quantum/simulator based on your KPIs.

Benchmarking

Compare backends on the same instance. Versioned and repeatable.

Reports & Manifest

PDF plus JSON with all parameters for review and reproducibility.


Architecture principles

  • Thin, composable platform: small surface; adapters over inheritance
  • Offline‑first: always runnable locally with OR‑Tools
  • Reproducible by design: seeds and manifests for deterministic comparisons
  • Security‑aware: no secrets in logs; budget caps; optional local PII checks
  • Type‑safe & testable: strict typing, clear adapter protocols, strong unit coverage
  • Developer‑friendly: task‑oriented docs and minimal examples that run out‑of‑the‑box

Security & compliance

  • Budget enforcement to prevent runaway costs
  • Optional local PII detection before remote execution
  • No secrets in logs; use environment variables or profiles for credentials
  • Audit trails via per‑run manifests
  • Deterministic modes for repeatable results
