The Challenge
The vendor had a promising 5-qubit ion trap system but no standardized way to prove its capabilities to enterprise buyers. Each proof-of-concept required custom integration, and there was no third-party validation of performance claims.
The Solution
The vendor ran the ACOS conformance test suite, which validated gate fidelities, native gate sets, and execution latency. Upon passing, their capabilities.json was published to the QCOS registry with benchmark attestations.
“ACOS certification gave us instant credibility with enterprise customers. We went from cold outreach to inbound leads within weeks of listing.”
