The plan calls for reducing photon-loss from 24.1x in 2026 to 1.0x by 2030, improving logical error rates to 10⁻¹⁶, building a quantum data center in 2029-2030, and scaling to up to 200 logical qubits by 2029 and 500 by 2030. The company also detailed growth of its open-source PennyLane software platform, used by 30.8% of surveyed quantum developers with over 1,890 public repositories depending on it and roughly 1.1 million package installs per month. Xanadu reports approximately US$686 million in total available funding plus confirmed Canadian government funding under Project OPTIMISM. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What logical qubit targets has Xanadu set for its photonic quantum computing roadmap through 2031? Xanadu targets up to 200 logical qubits by 2029, scaling to up to 500 by 2030, and more than 1,000 by 2031. This builds on a fault-tolerance milestone targeted for 2028–2029, with logical error rates expected to improve from roughly 10⁻³–10⁻⁸ in 2028 to 10⁻¹⁶ by 2030, supported by reducing the company's photon-loss indicator from 24.1x in 2026 to 1.0x by 2030. _Track hardware roadmap milestones like this one for quantum computing on daily.dev as fault tolerance timelines evolve._ ### How widely used is PennyLane among quantum computing developers? PennyLane is used by 30.8% of developers surveyed over the past year, making it the second-highest usage share among quantum development platforms. More than 1,890 public code repositories declare it as a dependency, it sees approximately 1.1 million package installs per month, and 51 simulator and hardware devices are reachable from its API, with over 150 university partners in more than 35 countries. _Developers comparing quantum development frameworks can follow PennyLane adoption trends on daily.dev._ ### How is Xanadu funded to execute its quantum computing roadmap? Xanadu reports approximately US$686 million in total available funding as of June 30, 2026, consisting of US$312.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, US$232.8 million in remaining capacity under a synthetic at-the-market equity facility with Yorkville Advisors, and approximately US$140.2 million (CAD $195 million) of confirmed Government of Canada funding under Project OPTIMISM. _Follow quantum computing funding and commercialization milestones like Xanadu's on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Xanadu Reports Higher Revenue in 2Q 2026, Expands U.S. Operations](https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-reports-higher-revenue-in-2q-2026-expands-u-s-operations-ps7klkf8d) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Canada Invests CAD $195 Million in Xanadu for Quantum Manufacturing](https://daily.dev/posts/canada-invests-cad-195-million-in-xanadu-for-quantum-manufacturing-te7ln0lur) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Logical Qubit Technology Launches Quantum Cloud Platform for Superconducting Quantum Computing](https://daily.dev/posts/logical-qubit-technology-launches-quantum-cloud-platform-for-superconducting-quantum-computing-8pzrh6ldc) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Xanadu Accelerates U.S. Growth with New York State Office](https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-accelerates-u-s-growth-with-new-york-state-office-rj2cvcvdr) · The Quantum Insider · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#quantum-computing](https://daily.dev/tags/quantum-computing) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-targets-more-than-1-000-logical-qubits-by-2031-n14bjd9ax) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Xanadu Targets More Than 1,000 Logical Qubits by 2031","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-targets-more-than-1-000-logical-qubits-by-2031-n14bjd9ax","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-targets-more-than-1-000-logical-qubits-by-2031-n14bjd9ax"},"datePublished":"2026-08-31T14:41:47.635Z","dateModified":"2026-09-14T06:07:33.364Z","description":"Xanadu Quantum Technologies unveiled an updated technology roadmap targeting fault-tolerant quantum computing by 2028-2029 and more than 1,000 logical qubits...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/0b8d46b9f1a5f395d3e833a79c0dd719?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/0b8d46b9f1a5f395d3e833a79c0dd719?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"The Quantum Insider","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"The Quantum Insider","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/7b14a6b34c1b464c9e8a88d9a0dac951","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/thequantuminsider"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-targets-more-than-1-000-logical-qubits-by-2031-n14bjd9ax","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":1},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"quantum-computing","timeRequired":"PT6M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"The Quantum Insider","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/thequantuminsider"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Xanadu Targets More Than 1,000 Logical Qubits by 2031"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/xanadu-targets-more-than-1-000-logical-qubits-by-2031-n14bjd9ax#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What logical qubit targets has Xanadu set for its photonic quantum computing roadmap through 2031?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Xanadu targets up to 200 logical qubits by 2029, scaling to up to 500 by 2030, and more than 1,000 by 2031.
