QIR
the core of quantum development

A community effort to develop a forward-looking, fully interoperable specification for quantum programs.

Unlock new quantum devices

We strive to develop a holistic solution that allows all to take full advantage of unique and distinct capabilities of heterogenous quantum processors.

Industry-wide collaboration

We are a community-wide effort to design and implement the necessary compiler technology to accelerate advances in quantum programming language design and execution systems.

Enable hybrid programs

We enable quantum stack developers and end-users to explore and write programs with complex classical and quantum instructions which give us a path to fault-tolerant quantum computing.

Get involved

We welcome new repositories under the QIR Alliance from both members and non-members. If you are curious about the community, check out the QIR channel on the Unitary Fund Discord, and the QIR community call and Office Hours every week on Thursdays on the Discord.
