Agari Smart Cooker Hits Kickstarter Record Fast

Agari Kitchen has taken the home cooking world by storm with its new Smart Cooker — a countertop appliance that combines 3D scanning, precision temperature control, and low-heat pressure cooking. In just six minutes, the project reached its crowdfunding goal on Kickstarter, placing it among the top 0.1% of most-backed campaigns in the platform’s history.

Redefining Home Cooking Precision

At the heart of the Agari Smart Cooker is a groundbreaking 3D scanning system capable of identifying the type, size, and temperature of the food before cooking begins. This information is then used to determine the ideal cooking time and temperature. The result is perfect consistency—whether you’re preparing steak, fish, or vegetables—without the need for constant monitoring or special sous-vide bags.

Professional Results with Zero Effort

What truly sets the Agari apart is its ability to perform a complete reverse sear within the same device. Thanks to its double-wall design and advanced heat pressure system, the cooker achieves a juicy interior and golden-brown crust faster than traditional methods. Every meal comes out tender and evenly cooked, rivaling results from high-end restaurant kitchens—all with a single button press.

Innovative Engineering Behind the Design

Built with four patents pending, the Agari Smart Cooker is more than a prototype—it’s a fully realized product ready for manufacturing. The Montreal-based startup has already developed production-ready units using industrial-grade tooling and successfully demonstrated complete cooking cycles. The product’s smooth exterior and intuitive interface reflect the brand’s philosophy: simplicity meets sophistication in modern kitchen technology.

Changing the Future of Cooking

With a retail price set at $1,099 USD, early Kickstarter backers can secure the device at an exclusive discount before the campaign ends on October 16, 2025. Shipments are expected to start by the end of Q1 2026. The founders of Agari Kitchen, a team with over 35 years of experience in product innovation, believe that smart cooking should be effortless. “Cooking perfectly requires precision, but it doesn’t have to require effort,” they said. With this release, Agari Kitchen is positioning itself as a game changer in the culinary tech world—bringing professional-level cooking into everyday homes.
