Nuviric Pilot — A Nuvira Technologies Product
Nuviric Pilot
Nuviric Pilot is a receiver-side execution layer for IBM Heron quantum processors: it characterizes the machine fresh, in the same sitting, plans against that live reading, and decodes what comes back with a grammar-constrained receiver whose ties are broken by corpus frequency. Like a pilot, it does not fly on yesterday’s weather or a stale chart — it reads its instruments as they stand right now and flies by the live reading. The method behind it is a trade secret; what it does is published, and the record is below.
The record — October 2026
Every result below comes from pre-registered tests on IBM Quantum hardware on 14–15 October 2026. Each run is timestamped in IBM’s own job ledger, and the preprint’s data-availability section lists the job IDs.
- One receiver, three machines. On one identical fixed battery — 17-symbol messages, 36 message instances per machine — the receiver delivered 36 of 36 on ibm_kingston, in two independent campaigns, 36 of 36 on ibm_marrakesh, and 35 of 36 on ibm_fez. Same-session textbook-plan controls on the identical battery delivered between 2 of 36 and 30 of 36, depending on machine and session. The Fez result is stated as 35 of 36. It is not rounded up.
- Two machines exchanged symbol streams. Kingston and Marrakesh each authored a self-introduction stream from its own fresh characterization, and the streams crossed every hop of a six-stage relay in both directions: 204 of 204 positions delivered, zero substitutions. The relay is a designed protocol with a classical bridge; the claim is delivered content, verified position by position.
- The symbol structure survives to a stranger. An independent decoder given only raw counts from Marrakesh flights — no labels, no method, no shared codebook — recovered the structure of the symbol set: pooled grouping agreement 0.971 against a pre-registered 0.90 strong-pass bar. It overestimated the alphabet, reporting 8 against a true value of 6. Structure survives the channel; meaning does not transfer without a teaching package.
- The deck reshuffles within hours. Across three Marrakesh characterizations taken on a single day, the 17 clearest wires overlapped by only 1–2 wires from sitting to sitting, while per-wire response quality moved by only about 0.01. The ranking churns; the wires themselves barely change. That is why the characterization is taken fresh, every sitting — and why a plan built on one machine, flown unchanged on another, delivered 0 of 36.
What it is not
- No speedup, no quantum advantage. This is channel reliability on today’s noisy processors. Nothing here is a comparison against classical machines, against IBM’s circuit-level resilience stack, or against any commercial mitigation product.
- No networking, no understanding. The two-machine exchange moved symbol streams through a designed relay protocol. The machines did not network, and no claim is made that any system understood the content it carried.
- Not a general benchmark. The battery is a fixed symbolic test set. It measures delivered-message survival under drift; it does not measure general quantum workloads.
- Not peer-reviewed. The preprint below is a timestamped public record, published so the claims can be checked. Independent reproduction is the next step, and it is the route offered under Licensing.
Published record
Reading a Drifting Machine — Richard Vigslist, Nuvira Technologies. Preprint, published 15 October 2026, open access (CC BY 4.0). DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.23405654. The paper carries the fleet results, the two-machine exchange, the blind structure test, and the wire-turnover census, with the IBM job IDs in its data-availability section.
The full claims-and-limits statement — what is claimed, what is not, and the bar for “works” — is on the verification page.
Licensing and validation
Nuviric Pilot is licensed, not sold, and it is delivered as a hosted function: your jobs route through the Pilot, and the method itself never transfers — at any tier, to anyone.
The way in is a paid validation engagement: a fixed-fee run, on your backend or ours, with success criteria agreed in writing in advance and the verdict publishable by either party. The validation fee is credited in full against a first license. Contact: richardvigslist@nuviratechnologies.io
