Cinder designs and manufactures premium smart cooking appliances that empower people who love great food to evolve the way they cook and eat at home. The company’s first product is the Cinder Sensing Cooker, a smart, countertop appliance that uses patent-pending sensing and control technology for precision-temperature cooking and searing in the same unit. It was developed by Cinder co-founders CEO Eric Norman, who has a background in product development at Toyota, and CTO Jim Reich, an expert controls and embedded systems engineer out of Lockheed Martin and Xerox PARC. The San Francisco-based company, founded as Palate Home in 2012, is backed by Silicon Valley accelerator Y Combinator and is a graduate of San Francisco hardware incubator Highway 1.
