Two-qubit gate fidelity (two-qubit gate fidelity)not publicly disclosed
Not publicly disclosed — checked 2026-08-19
- Finding
- No public disclosure found. This is a recorded, dated finding — we do not substitute an estimate or borrow a figure from a sibling device.
- Sources queried
- Official Orion Beta Technical Overview PDF (full 6-page document read this session — contains no fidelity figures); pasqal.com/solutions/hardware; Pasqal 2025 roadmap press release (2025-06-12, no fidelity numbers)
- Notes
- Orion Beta operates in analog mode; no digital gate set or gate fidelities are published. Pasqal's roadmap describes machines 'operating in analog mode (computing with physical qubits)... engineered to evolve toward digital FTQC'.
Coherence (coherence times (T1/T2))not publicly disclosed

- Roadmap (June 2025): Orion Gamma (140+ physical qubits) end of 2025; Vela (200+ physical qubits) 2027; Centaurus 2028 (early FTQC); Lyra 2029. Logical-qubit targets: 2 (2025) -> 20 (2027) -> 100 (2029) -> 200 (2030). Note: this June 2025 vendor roadmap conflicts with a third-party 2026 overview claiming 'Vela, 256+ qubits, planned 2026' — the vendor figure (200+, 2027) is recorded as authoritative.

Pricing model (cloud access and pricing model)Vendor states its 'Orion Alpha Machine is available through Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Marketplace and its own user portal'; a 100-qubit Pasqal QPU is on Google Cloud Marketplace with a pay-as-you-go model (2025-05-13); Pasqal QPUs added to Scaleway's Quantum-as-a-Service platform (2025-12-04, model not named)vendor claim

- Notes
- Caution for the site: the cloud-served machine is named Orion Alpha in the roadmap PR; the Orion Beta units cited above are on-premises deliveries. The Google Cloud PR does not name the QPU model (says '100-qubit QPU'). Predecessor QPU 'Fresnel' (100 qubits) exists but the current vendor spec set covers Orion Beta; Fresnel is not mentioned in the June 2025 roadmap PR.
