# Quickstart

## Prerequisites

* A Coda account ([sign up](https://coda.conductorquantum.com))
* An API key from the dashboard

## Install the SDK

```bash
pip install conductorquantum
```

## Simulate a circuit

```python
from conductorquantum import ConductorQuantum

client = ConductorQuantum(token="<your-api-key>")
result = client.coda.simulate(
    code="from qiskit import QuantumCircuit\nqc = QuantumCircuit(2)\nqc.h(0)\nqc.cx(0, 1)\nqc.measure_all()",
    method="qasm",
    shots=1024,
)
print(result)
```

## Transpile between frameworks

Convert a circuit from one quantum framework to another:

```python
from conductorquantum import ConductorQuantum

client = ConductorQuantum(token="<your-api-key>")
result = client.coda.transpile(
    source_code="from qiskit import QuantumCircuit\nqc = QuantumCircuit(2)\nqc.h(0)\nqc.cx(0, 1)",
    target="cirq",
)
print(result)
```

## Next steps

* [Agents](/coda/capabilities/agents): stream a run and continue a thread
* [Usage and credits](/coda/usage/usage-and-credits): remaining balance and settled run cost
* [Teams and team wallets](/coda/usage/teams-and-team-wallets): Enterprise `team_id` billing
* [MCP Integration](/coda/mcp/mcp-integration): use Coda from Claude Desktop or Cursor
* [Coda API Reference](/api-reference/coda-api): full endpoint documentation
