Classical-first, quantum-ready

Optimisation for operations that can't wait

Qatalyst turns operational constraints like power limits, fleet schedules, and port capacity into solve-ready models. Fast decisions by default. Quantum back-ends when scale demands it.

Faster decisions

Automated model generation and continuous re-optimisation as ground conditions shift. No manual maths. No waiting.

Operational clarity

Every constraint is explicit, auditable, and communicable across teams. The logic behind every recommendation is traceable.

🌱

Decarbonisation-ready

Optimise time, cost, energy, and emissions in one decision layer. Built for the transition to electric freight.

From constraints to decisions

Four stages. Fully automated. The solver stays behind the scenes. You get assignments, schedules, and routes.

01

Capture

Operational rules, vehicle specs, power limits, and time windows are ingested as structured constraints.

02

Formulate

Constraints are compiled into a solve-ready optimisation model (MILP, QUBO, or hybrid) automatically.

03

Solve

Classical solvers run by default. Quantum or hybrid back-ends activate selectively when coupling and scale justify it.

04

Deliver

Clear outputs: charging schedules, route allocations, capacity plans. Full full constraint traceability.

Selected for the 2026 IonQ + Qollab Creative Challenge

Qatalyst was selected as a winner of the 2026 Creative Challenge by IonQ and Qollab. Our entry, Quantum Courier, turns vehicle routing with time windows into a five-stage browser game. Play it free, no sign-up needed.

Where Qatalyst fits

Operations where decisions are coupled, time-critical, and repeat daily.

Charging

Electric fleet charging coordination

Rolling charging schedules across sites with limited grid capacity, clustered arrivals, and tight readiness deadlines. Optimises across vehicle priority, state-of-charge, and time-of-use tariffs simultaneously.

Energy

Grid storage siting

Where to place battery storage across a distribution network, under a fixed capital budget and across multiple contingency scenarios. The combinatorial search space grows fast as networks scale, and classical methods stall. Same QUBO engine as Qatalyst's freight work, applied to grid planning.

Routing

Multi-modal route optimisation

Multi-modal route planning with energy-aware SoC constraints, charging stop placement, and cross-channel corridor selection.

Resilience

Disruption response

Rapid re-optimisation when weather, infrastructure failures, or supply disruptions force real-time schedule and route changes.

Solver-agnostic by design

One constraint model. Multiple solver back-ends. You choose classical now, add quantum when the problem outgrows it.

Interface

Decision outputs

Assignments, schedules, routes, and capacity plans surfaced via dashboard or API. Constraint audit trail included.

Engine

Automated model generation

Operational rules compiled into MILP, QUBO, or CQM formulations. No manual modelling required.

Solvers

Classical to Hybrid to Quantum

Classical optimisation by default. Hybrid annealing and gate-model solvers available for highly-coupled, large-scale problems.

Data

Operational data integration

ETISplus freight network, real-time fleet telemetry, port schedules, grid capacity, and energy tariffs.
