Help Us Make Quantum Tangible
It's hard to get an intuition for quantum, because nothing around us acts quantum.
So, we built a qubit you can hold in your hand, so you can discover the rules of quantum yourself.
We need your support to bring this to the world and make quantum computing a whole lot easier for everyone.
