ORCA Computing is a British company that develops photonic quantum computers. It was founded in 2019 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford and is based in London. Its PT Series machines use single photons to carry information. They operate at room temperature and are built largely from standard telecommunications components. In 2022 the Ministry of Defence bought one of its machines, which was reported as the UK government's first quantum computer. ORCA has since supplied systems to the Poznań Supercomputing and Networking Center in Poland, Montana State University in the United States and the UK's National Quantum Computing Centre. Independent experts and journalists have described the machines as an early stage of the technology and have questioned some of the company's performance claims.
