## Products & services

IonQ’s quantum-computing products include specialized quantum hardware and access to systems with different qubit capacities, offered as complete systems for cloud or on-premises use. Its quantum-computing-as-a-service (QCaaS) is available through AWS Braket, Microsoft Azure Quantum, Google Cloud Marketplace and IonQ’s own cloud service for select customers. Direct customers may also reserve execution windows, receive application-development support, access hardware early or host a system. [9](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P155036845)[10](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P155036846)[11](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P83534626)[12](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P11926487)

IonQ describes its quantum computers as using trapped atomic-ion qubits, with a modular architecture intended to scale qubits per processor or processors per system and all-to-all qubit connectivity. Its annual report states that trapped-ion coherence can be preserved for about an hour; this is a general technical statement, not a specification for a particular system model. [13](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P98959263)[14](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P3236817)[15](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P16880337)

Other product lines include quantum networking products for connecting quantum and classical computers and transmitting photon-encoded information over satellite and fiber infrastructure; sensing products, including atomic clocks for timekeeping, synchronization, orientation and navigation; and quantum-safe encryption hardware and software. [16](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P11751596)[17](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P62329159)[18](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P55053741) IonQ also provides satellite synthetic-aperture-radar imagery and data through Capella. [19](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P59456713) In 2026, IonQ announced Clavis XG Multiplex for carrying quantum and classical traffic over existing metro fiber, and a partnership involving Superion 256 and a silicon-vacancy quantum-memory module. [20](https://www.ionq.com/news/ionq-introduces-clavis-xg-multiplex-making-quantum-security-deployable-at-scale-in-metro-networks)[21](https://www.ionq.com/news/ionq-and-sdt-announce-the-first-strategic-partnership-to-bring-both-advanced-quantum-computing-and-quantum-networking-to-the-asia-pacific-region) The company discloses revenue streams including quantum hardware and support, QCaaS, consulting and related services, and satellite imagery and data, but does not provide a product-level revenue or performance percentage breakdown in the cited filing.

## Business segments

IonQ, Inc. reports one operating segment, rather than separate reportable segments. Its chief operating decision maker reviews consolidated financial information to make operating decisions, allocate resources, and evaluate performance; the company does not report revenue allocations across its product, service, or customer categories. [28](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P155036830)[29](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P32514208)

On that single-segment basis, the segment accounted for 100% of consolidated revenue: $130.016 million in fiscal 2025, $43.073 million in 2024, and $22.042 million in 2023. These figures represent consolidated, single-segment revenue—not a breakdown by offering. [8](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=T12887653)

IonQ’s business offerings include quantum-computing hardware, cloud access to quantum computers, and related maintenance, support, and expert services; it also describes products and services in quantum networking, sensing, and security. These are areas of business focus, not separately reported segments. [2](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P64610594)[30](https://app.finbar.com/go?id=P85300577)

IonQ completed its business combination with dMY Technology Group III on September 30, 2021, and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange as IONQ on October 1. [37](https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1824920/000119312521288271/d173065d425.htm) The company introduced its Aria system in 2022 and launched Forte for commercial use in 2023. [38](https://www.ionq.com/news/february-23-2022-ionq-aria-furthers-lead) [39](https://www.ionq.com/news/ionq-forte-launched-for-commercial-use-making-aq-29-available-for-customers) In 2025, IonQ appointed Niccolo de Masi president and CEO, while co-founder Monroe became chief scientific advisor; that year it also completed acquisitions including Qubitekk, id Quantique, Oxford Ionics and Capella Space.
