Claims outrun evidence
"Quantum advantage" is announced weekly. Without a named benchmark and a classical baseline, it is marketing — and reputational risk follows the wrong bet.
Veriqa · Evidence-first decision layer for quantum
Quantum claims,
graded against a classical baseline.
Veriqa grades quantum claims, papers, patents and cryptographic risk against classical baselines, flags the missing evidence, and produces board-ready decision memos with the evidence shown. Every customer report stays in draft until an internal reviewer approves it — the software enforces the gate.
Veriqa is a transparent, rules-based decision system — every score is a function of named text features (evidence density, benchmarks, citations), not a machine-learned model. An optional language-model enrichment layer adds context but never overrides the classical-baseline gates. See how the grading works.

Figures are scenario estimates attributed to the McKinsey Quantum Technology Monitor 2026: the $12.6B is reported 2025 quantum start-up investment; the $2.7T is McKinsey's high-case 2035 economic-value scenario (lower scenarios are materially smaller). All forward-looking figures are illustrative and scenario-dependent — verify against the cited edition before reuse. These are forward-looking statements subject to risks and uncertainties; results may differ materially. PQC standards: NIST FIPS 203/204/205.

The decision gap
Quantum is now a board-level decision.
Telling signal from hype is not.
No internal quantum bench
Most funds, boards and CISOs lack in-house quantum-physics and cryptography talent to diligence a deal or vendor on a deadline. Outside experts are slow and expensive.
The PQC clock is live
NIST finalized FIPS 203, 204 and 205 in August 2024. Harvest-now-decrypt-later means long-lived secrets are already exposed. Waiting is a risk decision, not a neutral one.
Papers ≠ roadmaps
Frontier research does not translate into procurement paths or readiness memos. The evidence-grading layer between paper and boardroom is missing.
The Veriqa platform
Four agents. One auditable spine.
Every agent inherits the same claim-discipline engine: extract claims, demand a classical baseline, score the evidence, and route the result through a reviewer workflow gate. See how it works →
01
Readiness Diligence Agent
Evaluates quantum companies, claims, papers, patents and roadmaps. Outputs a decision memo, hype-risk score, evidence table and exportable JSON.
02
PQC Migration Agent
Maps a cryptographic inventory to NIST FIPS 203/204/205, assigns P1/P2/P3 priority by harvest-now exposure and shelf life, and delivers a phased plan.
03
Molecular Design Agent
Separates your AI-assisted design, classical simulation and selective quantum refinement into a conservative, patent-ready evidence package with gaps flagged.
04
Market Intelligence Agent
Tracks companies, papers, grants, policy, patents and talent in structured, machine-readable intelligence packs on a recurring schedule.
Evidence-first workflow
Every output separates fact, assumption, benchmark and missing evidence.
Five steps from a source to a decision memo — and the next validation step. Each line carries a source and a confidence score.
- 1
Ingest sources
Company, paper, patent, URL, pasted memo, or a strategic question.
- 2
Extract claims
Pull claims, evidence, maturity and assumptions — with citations.
- 3
Benchmark
Compare against classical baselines; flag unsupported advantage.
- 4
Decision memo
Verdict + evidence table + risk scores + machine-readable JSON.
- 5
Reviewer gate
Stays in draft until an internal reviewer approves it for delivery.

Score a quantum claim in 30 seconds.
Pick a claim below. The agent classifies the use case, builds an evidence table, and scores technical maturity, commercial urgency and hype-risk — then returns a decision-support verdict: proceed, monitor, or require further diligence. Illustrative
These three are samples. In the full app you paste your own company memo, patent, or claim — and Veriqa grades it the same way.

Solutions
One evidence layer. Five decisions.
The same claim-discipline, tuned to the decision you are actually facing.
Investors & corp-dev
Diligence quantum on the evidence
Hype-risk scoring, evidence tables and a proceed / monitor / require-further-diligence memo for startups, public-company narratives and M&A targets — without a quantum bench in-house.
For investors →Security & CISOs
Run the PQC migration on the clock
Turn a cryptographic inventory into a phased post-quantum plan mapped to NIST FIPS 203/204/205, prioritised by harvest-now exposure and shelf life.
For security →Pharma & R&D
Separate the science from the claim
Split AI-assisted design, classical simulation and selective quantum refinement into a conservative, patent-ready evidence package with wet-lab gaps flagged.
For pharma & R&D →Defense & dual-use
TRL-honest readiness, hype-free
Grade quantum sensing, PNT, secure communications and timing claims against the evidence and map them to realistic procurement paths.
For defense →Claim discipline
Discipline is the product.
Every claim graded by the same rules — no exceptions, no overrides.
- Never assert proven quantum advantage without a named benchmark, problem size, and classical baseline. Missing any → flagged needs-baseline; it cannot raise the maturity verdict.
- Always present the classical comparator alongside any quantum result — so the reader can judge the gap, not just the headline.
- Label mock data, illustrative figures and missing wet-lab results explicitly. Nothing passes silently.
- Cite every non-obvious claim with a source ID and confidence score — so the reader knows how much weight each line deserves.
- Route every customer-facing report through a reviewer workflow gate: it stays in draft until an internal reviewer approves it. Independent expert review is recommended.
- Enforce in code, not just copy — the API blocks a proceed verdict while any core claim is needs-baseline.
Where we sit
The quantum market is crowded. The decision layer is not.
Across the market — software platforms, PQC tools, vertical apps, infrastructure and human advisory — we believe the same whitespace recurs: few occupy the agent-native, evidence-first, cross-vertical decision layer. The map shows market segments, not named companies; it is our own market opinion and positioning, not a benchmarked competitive finding.

Before you ask
The four questions buyers ask first.
More detail — turnaround, scope changes and how pilots convert — lives on pricing.
Is this investment advice?
No. Veriqa outputs are decision-support and general information only — not investment, financial, legal, or tax advice, and not an offer or solicitation of any security. You and your professional advisors remain responsible for the decision.
Do you sign NDAs?
Yes. A mutual NDA is available on request and is standard before we share competitive landscape analysis or detailed diligence material — basic engagement scoping is not gated behind one. Confidential inputs you provide are handled under that agreement once executed.
Who reviews the report?
Every memo passes a reviewer workflow gate: it stays a draft until an internal reviewer approves it for delivery. For high-stakes decisions we recommend you also obtain independent expert review on your side. We do not represent that any outside expert has signed off on the report.
What's the turnaround?
We confirm scope and a fixed price, usually within two business days of your request. A Starter Brief is then delivered in under two weeks; larger engagements are scoped before any work begins.
