# Zapata Quantum

> Zapata Quantum, Inc. (formerly Zapata Computing, briefly Zapata AI) is a Boston-based,
> hardware-agnostic quantum software company spun out of a Harvard quantum computing lab in 2017.
> It sells enterprise engagements — use-case discovery, hardware-readiness assessment and quantum
> application development across chemistry, optimization, simulation and machine learning — around
> its Orquestra platform, and publishes the Orquestra Workflow SDK stack as Apache-2.0 open source.

## Important for agents

- **Zapata Quantum publishes no API.** There is no public REST, GraphQL, gRPC, SOAP, AsyncAPI or MCP
  surface, no developer portal, no API reference, no API base URL, no sandbox and no self-serve
  signup. Every commercial entry point is the contact form.
- The only machine-readable developer surface is the **Orquestra Python package stack on PyPI** and
  the **`orq` CLI** shipped inside `orquestra-sdk`. Both are Apache-2.0 and both are frozen: the
  newest release across the whole 14-package stack is **2024-10-04**.
- `orq` talks to a **customer-specific Orquestra Compute Engine cluster URL** supplied by the
  operator at login time. There is no fixed public host.
- The documentation host `docs.orquestra.io`, still declared on the live PyPI pages and in the SDK
  README, **no longer resolves**.
- Company history matters here: Zapata ceased operations on **2024-10-09** after a debt
  acceleration, restructured through 2025, and relaunched as **Zapata Quantum** in 2026. The legacy
  domains `zapatacomputing.com` (404) and `zapata.ai` (TLS failure) are dead.
