The Story
Built lean. Deployed globally. IBM-verified.
John Ryan built EpochCore on a simple observation: 90% of quantum workloads don't need a quantum computer. They need a good GPU and someone honest enough to say so. The other 10% should be routed intelligently — with calibration-aware qubit selection, error pre-flight, and adaptive shot budgeting. Not blind submission.
The result is an 8-layer quantum execution platform running at ~$5/month infrastructure cost (Cloudflare only). 257 IBM Heron circuit workloads. 168/168 Quantum Glue backtest (100%). 44 Durable Objects. 9 proprietary algorithms. IBM partnership active with 25 agents on watsonx Orchestrate.
"90% of quantum workloads today don't need a quantum computer. They need a good GPU and someone honest enough to tell you that. We charge $0 for what competitors charge $13."
"The next wave of competitive intelligence in capital markets runs on quantum probability amplitudes, not classical statistics. We built the infrastructure to make that accessible — one API call, any enterprise."
"The infrastructure builds itself now. Autonomous, self-healing, always-on. The frontier question is which industries get quantum advantage first — and who owns the compliance layer when regulators arrive."
"Quantum computing for finance isn't five years away. VQE converges to analytical options pricing today. Grover finds arbitrage today. QAE computes VaR today. The question isn't whether quantum works — it's whether your fund has access."
