Evidence Before Quantum Experimentation.

Determine whether quantum computing is actually worth using — before committing to expensive experimentation, hardware, or pilots.

ShorQ Prism is a vendor-neutral quantum feasibility intelligence platform that evaluates real-world problems and datasets, benchmarks quantum approaches against strong classical alternatives, and produces decision-ready evidence before organisations invest heavily in quantum execution.

Designed for industry, academia, public sector, consultancies and innovation teams.

About ShorQ

Making Quantum Decisions With Evidence

ShorQ Ltd is a UK-based deep technology company focused on accelerating the practical adoption of quantum computing across industry, academia and the public sector.

ShorQ Prism helps organisations determine whether quantum computing can provide measurable benefits for their specific business, scientific or operational challenges. The platform sits between organisations seeking practical quantum applications and the broader quantum ecosystem, providing an objective, evidence-based assessment rather than assuming quantum is automatically the right technology.

ShorQ is vendor-neutral and is not dependent on one quantum hardware provider.

Designed to reduce

  • Wasted engineering effort
  • Unnecessary simulator usage
  • Unnecessary hardware experimentation
  • Poorly selected quantum use cases
  • Weak benchmarking
  • Unsupported quantum advantage claims

ShorQ Prism asks “Should we use quantum at all?” rather than assuming quantum will be used and moving straight to building the experiment.

Why ShorQ?

  • Pre-execution feasibility

    Determine whether a quantum experiment is worth conducting before execution.

  • Evidence-driven

    Use structured benchmarking and statistical analysis rather than hype.

  • Vendor-neutral

    Remain independent of any single quantum hardware provider.

  • Decision-ready

    Translate technical findings into evidence suitable for business and technical decision-making.

  • MODULE 01

    Bring-Your-Own-Data Quantum Assessment

    Organisations bring real-world datasets — CSV, Excel, logs, financial, molecular, optimisation, classification, regression datasets and operational constraint systems. The platform performs preprocessing, normalisation, compatibility checks and structural extraction.

    • CSV
    • Excel
    • Logs
    • Financial

    • Optimisation
    • Classification
    • Regression
    • Constraint systems

    Shown here as a conceptual capability.

  • MODULE 02

    Problem-to-Quantum Mapping

    The platform identifies the computational problem type — optimisation, simulation, classification, regression, sampling or hybrid problems — and identifies potential quantum approaches.

    • QAOA
    • VQE
    • Quantum kernels
    • Other quantum workflows
  • MODULE 03

    Quantum Feasibility Fingerprint

    Dataset characteristics are converted into a structured Quantum Feasibility Fingerprint.

    • Dimensionality
    • Sparsity
    • Constraints
    • Encoding compatibility
    • Qubit requirements
    • Circuit-depth pressure

  • MODULE 04

    Evidence Sweep Engine

    The pre-execution feasibility engine. Its purpose is to identify unsuitable experiments before expensive quantum resources are consumed.

    • Qubit requirements
    • Circuit depth
    • Encoding suitability
    • Simulator feasibility
    • Statistical power
    • Classical baseline availability
    • Training difficulty
    • Hardware readiness
  • MODULE 05

    Quantum-Classical Truth Protocol

    Quantum results are not evaluated in isolation. Every relevant quantum approach is compared against strong classical alternatives to determine whether quantum provides a meaningful and defensible advantage.

    • SVMs
    • Random Forests
    • Neural Networks
    • Gradient Boosting
    • Simulated Annealing
    • Branch-and-Bound
    • Mixed Integer Optimisation
    • Quadratic Optimisation
    • Monte Carlo
    • Domain-specific methods
  • MODULE 06

    Statistical Advantage Layer

    Rather than simply reporting raw performance metrics, results are assessed statistically so that quantum claims are more scientifically defensible.

    • Statistical significance
    • Confidence intervals
    • Variance
    • Repeatability
    • Effect size

  • MODULE 07

    Dataset Fingerprint Atlas

    • Accumulated evidence
  • MODULE 08

    Negative Result Intelligence Loop

    ShorQ does not only learn from successful quantum experiments. Unfavourable outcomes become reusable intelligence for future feasibility assessments.

    • Failed experiments
    • Weak results
    • Inconclusive results
    • Poor encodings

How it works

From Problem to Quantum Decision

ShorQ Prism puts feasibility and evidence before execution.

  1. STEP 01

    Bring your problem

    Start with a real-world business, scientific or operational problem and its relevant dataset.

  2. STEP 02

    Understand the data

    Analyse dataset structure, dimensions, sparsity, constraints and other characteristics relevant to quantum suitability.

  3. STEP 03

    Map the problem

    Identify the problem class and potential quantum approaches.

  4. STEP 04

    Assess feasibility

    Run structured pre-execution checks covering qubits, circuit depth, encoding, statistical power, baselines and hardware constraints.

  5. STEP 05

    Benchmark

    Compare potential quantum approaches against strong classical alternatives.

  6. STEP 06

    Validate the evidence

    Evaluate significance, confidence intervals, variance, repeatability and effect size.

  7. STEP 07

    Make the decision

    Produce a Quantum Readiness Evidence Pack and a clear evidence classification.

Possible conclusions

  • Quantum advantage
  • Classical advantage
  • Infeasible
  • Technically feasible but commercially weak
  • Inconclusive
  • Promising but requiring further hardware validation

Sometimes the best quantum decision is not to use quantum.
