AFAIK Cadabra is the only free software dedicated to this:

I will take some time to get familiarized with it, and eventually
would like to make a sage interface to it.
That would be great!
At this point cadabra doesn't have manipulation methods for scalar
expressions.

They have been considering making an interface to some scalar cas
like Maxima or SymPy. But I think Sage would be a much better choice
for them (perhaps they don't know about it).
I agree, Sage would be a good fit--you should ping them about it. If
they shipped a Python interface, you could use it from Sage or sympy
or plain Python.
So I suspect we might find a welcoming attitude if we ask for help
to develop a cadabra-sage interface.
Is there some other people who work with quantum mechanics that
might be interested in this? As I said I am only starting with
quantum mechanics (loving it) so most of the stuff cadabra does
remain obscure to me.
I've always wanted to learn more about quantum mechanics, but I'm in
the middle of writing a thesis so wouldn't be able to help you out.
