On2Cook

Sanandan Sudhir ("Sandy") is Season 1's most credentialled deep-technology inventor-founder — an Ahmedabad entrepreneur whose background spans engineering, product innovation, and technology commercialisation, who spent years developing a genuinely novel combination cooking technology (simultaneously applying induction/flame heating from outside and microwave energy from inside), secured patents across India, the US, and the UK, won the British Invention Show Diamond Award (Best International Invention), the iF Design Award, and was the Most Celebrated Invention at CES Las Vegas 2022 before appearing on Shark Tank India — and received no investment from any Shark. Sanandan Sudhir founded On2Cook. He added that he is not just a founder but an inventor of this product.

On2Cook is the world's first combination cooking device — a countertop kitchen appliance that simultaneously combines induction heating (or flame) from outside the food with microwave energy from inside the food, cooking food up to 70% faster than conventional methods, reducing energy consumption by up to 40–50%, preserving water-soluble nutrients, colour, texture, and consistency — available for domestic kitchens (AI-enabled, voice-controlled, connected cooking device) and commercial applications (cloud kitchens, restaurants, enterprise catering).
