Whirlpool And Innit Take The Connected Kitchen To The Next Level
Whirlpool Corporation, a manufacturer of major home appliances, and Innit, a food tech innovator, announce a partnership to bring a new layer of food intelligence to help people eat and live better. Whirlpool Corporation connected cooking appliances, starting with Jenn-Air brand WiFi connected ovens, will offer the Innit platform to enable advanced automated cooking and dynamic digital recipes to help people cook more at home.
Innit Empowered appliances and apps give consumers a way to access thousands of digitized recipes, based on personalized dietary and taste preferences. Consumers will be guided by intuitive step-by-step preparation instructions, and with just a few clicks, will be able to cook with chef-level quality on their Jenn-Air connected oven. Cooking is tailored to the weight, temperature and type of food, helping ensure great results with no guesswork.
Whirlpool Corporation and Innit plan to begin consumer trials in late 2016, with availability on all Jenn-Air connected wall ovens planned for the first half of 2017. Starting immediately, consumers can get a taste of the joint offering in live demos and cooking classes on Jenn-Air products, offered exclusively at the Pirch retail showroom in SoHo, New York City.
Innit's team of chefs, nutritionists and engineers uses food science and technology to help people manage and prepare their food with ease. The Innit platform identifies and measures food using advanced sensors in the kitchen, recommends recipes based on inventory, and automatically executes expert cooking techniques on connected kitchen appliances. Innit was founded in 2013 in Silicon Valley and emerged from stealth mode in November 2015 with $25 million in funding.
