 Although it is still a work in progress, the intent is that AutoQASM will support any quantum programming paradigm which falls into the [OpenQASM 3.0](https://openqasm.com) language scope. AutoQASM supports serializing quantum programs to OpenQASM, which allows the programs to interoperate with any library or service that supports OpenQASM programs, such as Amazon Braket.

+It supplements the program building experience and integrates with
 Amazon Braket SDK features. For instance, one can build a program through
 AutoQASM, and then use the SDK to run the program on a local simulator or on
 an Amazon Braket device.
 
 ### 4. Does AutoQASM support other providers beyond Amazon Braket?
 
 Yes. AutoQASM serializes to OpenQASM, and so it is applicable to any library
-or QPU that supports OpenQASM. We do have features that use the Amazon Braket
