It's a little different than a kitchen gadget that sits on the countertop, but even Ycombinator got into the game, sort of. In 2013 Ycombinator invested 120k into Pantelligent[0]. It was a smart pan that would track temps as you cook. I remember when they got shut down due to patent infringement and being very disappointed. I think they tried to change the app to get around the copyright stuff, but in the end they couldn't get around the infringement. https://tracxn.com/d/companies/pantelligent/__v3MfJ_9W6rQ9nRb2XC5oqLKsgWldAVPYjR2iH2DSkW0 https://tracxn.com/d/companies/pantelligent/__v3MfJ_9W6rQ9nR...
