A BEC-station and a cloud-based server cooperate to provide Bose-Einstein condensates as a service (BECaaS). The BEC station serves as a system for implementing “recipes” for producing, manipulating, and/or using cold (<1 mK) a BEC, e.g., of cold Rubidium 87 atoms. The cloud-based server acts as an interface between the station (or stations) and authorized users of account holders. To this end the server hosts an account manager and a session manager. The account manager manages accounts and associated account-based and user-specific permissions that define what actions any given authorized user for an account may perform with respect to a BEC station. The session manager controls (in some cases real-time) interactions between a user and a BEC station, some interactions allowing a user to select a recipe based on results returned earlier in the same session.
