On2Cook’s patented appliance fuses induction searing, microwave volumetric heating, and AI-driven sensor control, cutting cooking time by up to 70% while reducing energy consumption by 50%. Independent laboratory tests verify that the appliance not only cooks faster but also retains nutrients, providing consistent flavor and texture. This technology allows cooking to be up to three times quicker, with up to 50% greater nutrient retention.
The appliance provides standardised results with accuracy and streamlines operations in professional kitchens. Currently deployed in more than 50 brands (commercial kitchens) across India, the US, and the Middle East, On2Cook replaces multiple appliances, allowing chefs to do more with less and enabling businesses to scale efficiently with limited resources.
“This recognition is a validation of not just our patents, but our mission to make sustainable, intelligent cooking the global norm,” said Sanandan Sudhir, inventor and CEO of On2Cook, on this achievement.
Winning the German Innovation Award provides strong third-party validation as the company gears up for its series A funding round, signalling investor confidence in its market-ready solution.
The award enhances On2Cook’s credibility with European distributors, smoothing regulatory pathways and strengthening its export strategy. It also shines a spotlight on India’s capability to deliver category-defining hardware, reinforcing the country’s position as a rising force in deep-tech innovation and inspiring the local startup ecosystem to aim higher.
For co-founders Sanandan and Jyoti Sudhir, receiving the award was a full-circle moment. As co-founders of both InventIndia and On2Cook, their belief in human-centred design and purpose-driven technology laid the foundation for this innovation. From bootstrapping the venture in Ahmedabad to standing on a global stage, the journey has been one of resilience, passion, and belief in the power of Indian innovation to disrupt global markets.
