gm legends and welcome back to the Leaderboard. In today's issue we're diving into Microsoft's certified crazy quantum computing development, a tool that makes sense of all your startup's data, and a new app that makes parenting a little less stressful.
Microsoft Majorana 1 is Microsoft’s first quantum chip built using a “topological qubit” design. Instead of fragile, error-prone qubits, it uses Majorana particles to make them more stable and scalable. If it works, this could lead to a quantum computer with a million qubits—something powerful enough to crack problems today’s supercomputers can’t touch.
🔥 Our take: Apple drops a slightly thinner iPhone, Microsoft drops a whole new state of matter. If this thing actually works, it’s one of the biggest leaps in computing history. But that’s a big if. Quantum breakthroughs tend to look great in controlled experiments and much less impressive in the wild. If Majorana 1 avoids that fate, we might be watching the beginning of an actual quantum revolution. If not, well, there’s always next decade.
Airbook is a no-code data platform that connects to 150+ sources, cleans and organizes the data, and turns it into dashboards and reports teams can actually use. It’s built for collaboration, letting teams analyze, automate, and experiment without relying on engineers to make sense of the numbers.
🔥 Our take: Data tools tend to fall into two camps—either they’re too simple to be useful or too complex to be worth the trouble. Airbook is aiming for the sweet spot, giving teams the power of a full-scale data platform without the setup nightmare. The challenge will be whether it stays as easy to use as it promises once real-world data starts piling in.
Riley is a parenting app that tracks your baby’s sleep, feedings, and development while offering AI-powered guidance based on real pediatric research. It’s designed to give parents a clearer picture of what’s happening—and what’s coming next—without endless Googling at 3 AM.
🔥 Our take: No one reads the baby books they panic-bought. Riley is banking on that, offering real-time advice instead of outdated chapters gathering dust on a shelf. If it actually personalizes its guidance instead of just spitting out generic milestones, it could be a game-changer for new parents running on fumes. If not, well, the baby books will still be there.
