On2Cook Revolutionizes Commercial Kitchens with AI-Integrated Cooking Device

On2Cook, the world's fastest cooking device, has made a significant impact in the B2B cooking sector in India. Launched just a few months ago, the innovative AI-driven cooking appliance has already been deployed in over 500 units across more than 35 F&B brands, including cloud kitchens, cafeterias, restaurants, and hospitality chains. The device, created by inventor Sanandan Sudhir, has quickly gained traction for its ability to transform traditional cooking methods.

Sudhir announced that the company has also received Letters of Intent for an additional 4,000 units, set to be installed in commercial kitchens worldwide. Among the early adopters of On2Cook are brands like Grabs Kitchen, Carasid Café Goa, Hocco Eatery, Venky Residency, and Salad Time.

"On2Cook is the future of cooking, and we are thrilled by its widespread acceptance in the B2B F&B space. Our patented technology offers numerous benefits for commercial kitchens, such as eliminating the need for gas-based cooking, reducing oil usage, and replacing pre-cooked meals with freshly prepared dishes. For instance, a mid-sized kitchen serving about 100 plates daily can save over Rs 16,000 monthly just on oil consumption. The device's advantages are evident across all cooking segments, including restaurants, cloud kitchens, bakeries, casual dining, and Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) chains," said Sanandan Sudhir.

Sunil Shrivastav, owner of Carasid Café Goa, shared his positive experience with On2Cook, stating, "We’ve been using On2Cook for a few months, and it’s not just fast and efficient, but also incredibly consistent, especially for our fillings made in large batches. Consistency in color, quality, and texture is crucial in our business, and On2Cook delivers on all fronts without the need for monitoring. I’m so satisfied with its performance that I plan to add up to 100 units across our café chain."

On2Cook, patented in India, the US, the UK, and Russia, significantly reduces cooking time to one-third of traditional methods, cuts power bills by up to 40%, and lowers oil consumption by around 50%, all while delivering healthier and more nutritious meals. The device also minimizes the number of cooks needed in a commercial kitchen, improving the consistency and quality of food. With an integrated app and IoT capabilities, On2Cook automates order processing and cooking, featuring over 300 predefined recipes.

First showcased during the Grand Finale of Shark Tank India Season 1, On2Cook has captured the attention of industry leaders, including Anand Mahindra, even before its official launch. The device ensures that vegetables and meats cooked retain water-soluble nutrients, minerals, structure, texture, and color, preserving elements that are often lost in traditional cooking methods.
