Quantum Whiteboard

A drag-and-drop visual circuit builder for high-school and early-undergraduate physics teachers who want to introduce quantum gates without writing Python.

Target user

high-school physics and computer science teachers introducing quantum concepts to non-specialists

Features
  • Drag-and-drop gate palette that translates to valid Qiskit code students can run later
  • Pre-built lesson packs (superposition, entanglement, teleportation) mapped to common curricula
  • Classroom mode where students submit circuits and the teacher sees live state-vector results
  • Export to printable worksheets with worked-example circuits
Why now

Quantum literacy is being added to many national STEM curricula, but teachers lack tools that don't require a Python prerequisite.

Demand
6/10

Multiple free drag-and-drop quantum circuit builders (IBM Quantum Composer, Simulations4All, quantumstuff.org, QOSim, WIA) plus IBM's QGSS 2026 summer school and a 2025 arXiv paper on integrating quantum into high-school STEM curricula confirm real classroom demand, but it is already being actively served.Composer | IBM Quantum PlatformIntroducing Quantum Computing to High-School Curricula: A Global SurveyFree Quantum Circuit Builder | Simulations4All

Whitespace
4/10

Space is crowded: IBM Quantum Composer (free, branded), Simulations4All, QOSim (patent-pending), and quantumstuff.org all offer no-Python drag-and-drop circuit building, leaving narrow differentiation room for a new entrant.QOSim - Visual Quantum OS Simulator for Research & EducationQuantum Circuit Playground - quantumstuff.orgQuantum Circuit Builder - Visual Quantum Computing Tool

Monetization
3/10

K-12 EdTech (Canvas, Salesforce Education, LMS vendors) typically hides pricing behind sales reps and relies on district budgets; meanwhile every competitor here is free, suppressing willingness-to-pay for a teacher-targeted visual tool.Canvas LMS Pricing: An In-depth BreakdownBest K-12 EdTech Platforms 2026LMS Pricing Breakdown 2026: Costs, Models & Saving Strategies

Longevity
7/10

Quantum-into-high-school is a multi-decade curriculum trend backed by national STEM pushes, IQC outreach, and IBM's annual summer school — the topic will keep growing, though free incumbents may persist.Quantum School for Young Students - Institute for Quantum Computing[Registrations closed] Qiskit Global Summer School 2026 - IBM

Feasibility
6/10

A browser-based drag-and-drop circuit builder with state visualization is technically straightforward and already replicated by several small teams, but outcompeting IBM Composer's brand and free price is the hard part.Composer | IBM Quantum PlatformQOSim - Visual Quantum OS Simulator for Research & Education
