No live demo yet — canonical QUBO; classical solvers strong — the honesty gate applies. The paradigm-honest position: this use case is demonstrated with crossover analysis, not theater.
GTM talk track
'The honest answer is often classical here. We say so — and that's why you can trust us on the cases where quantum does win.'
OGSM — product operating frame
Objective
Use as an honesty-gate demonstration.
Goals
- Show a classical verdict
Strategies
- Benchmark vs classical openly
Measures
- N/A near-term
OBR — outcome-based roadmap
| Horizon | Outcome we create | Buyer behavior change | Result we measure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Now | Educate on the boundary | Prospect runs the emulated demo on their own instance data | Booked QPU-time evaluation or paid pilot |
| Next | Test a structured instance | Prospect co-designs a scoped benchmark against their incumbent solver | Documented crossover curve; expansion to production instances |
| Later | Reassess | Prospect standardizes on the workflow or buys an on-prem system | Recurring QPU consumption / system sale; reference case |
Fit notes (honesty gate)
Canonical QUBO; be honest — classical usually wins.

Emulation-verified today — the same program runs on a Pasqal QPU unchanged.
