A piece of salmon went into a black countertop appliance and came out perfectly seared to medium-rare. No temperature was set. No cooking mode was selected. No timer was started. Just a camera looking in, and dinner coming out. [](https://mmx.prnasia.com/media/MS1976707/20260826225104EDT_image_1.jpg?id=OA2915378&p=medium600) Within 72 hours, the world’s most influential tech and food media had a name for what they saw. Forbes described it as "a data-driven process, combining sensors, models, and a recipe system trained by professional chefs… a managed environment, optimized through software and precision hardware." Food Network wrote that its " capabilities are light-years ahead — designed to automate cooking with as little input from the user as possible." USA Today named it one of the Best of CES 2026. Trend Hunter observed that it "may significantly reduce the complexity and anxiety associated with cooking." That appliance — wan AIChef ultra — will launch to the world on Sept 1. Beginning September 1, wan AIChef ultra is available globally on Indiegogo, with Super Early Bird pricing starting at $1,799 (55% off the $3,999 MSRP). It is the world’s first AI-powered cooking robot that sees ingredients, thinks through recipes, and cooks autonomously — built to end the daily 7 PM question that haunts millions of homes: "What’s for dinner?" **"It Sees. It Thinks. It Cooks."** It started with a simple question: What if cooking could truly be one step? _"For decades, smart kitchen appliances have promised convenience but delivered complexity. They still ask users to choose settings, follow steps, and keep checking in,"_ said the founder of wan AIChef. "_We took a different approach: What if an appliance could understand what it’s cooking, instead of simply following a preset?_" For seven years, the team built from early prototypes to generation after generation of real products—refining their cooking algorithms, testing countless ingredients, and learning from every meal along the way to make that idea possible. The result is wan AIChef ultra. Unlike traditional smart ovens that automate timers, wan AIChef ultra combines a** 12MP AI vision camera**, **Heimann infrared thermal imaging**, and an **NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano + Ampere-GA10B AI processor** to recognize ingredients, recommend optimal cooking methods, and dynamically adjust heat in real time. Load the ingredients. Press Start. From there, wan AIChef takes over — seeing, thinking, and cooking for you. **Six Breakthrough Features Redefining the Connected Kitchen** 1. **AI Vision Recognition** — A 12MP camera identifies ingredients automatically and selects the optimal recipe from a library of 1,000+ globally curated dishes. 2. **AI Precision Heat Control** — With NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano and Heimann Thermal Imaging, wan AIChef dynamically adjusts heat with ±3.2°F accuracy, helping prevent overcooking while better retaining nutrients and minimizing unwanted compounds such as acrylamide. The team calls it "The Death of Overcooking."   3. **AI Personalized Chef (wan AiOS)** — The device learns each user’s taste preferences through Perfect / Overcooked / Undercooked feedback. All data stays **on-device** for 100% privacy — no cloud uploads.   4. **All-in-One 5+ Appliance Replacement** — Steam, Boil, Stir-fry, Braise, Pan-sear, Grill — replacing the microwave, Dutch oven, steamer, oven, slow cooker, and cast iron skillet on your countertop.   5. **OTA Evolution & Lifetime Updates** — New recipes, features, and improvements roll out automatically. The chef gets smarter while you sleep.   6. **6-Layer Family Safety System** — Dry-burn protection, smart cookware detection, auto-stop on door open, child-lock, soft-close door (>20° auto-close), and smoke- free cooking. **Engineered to Last a Decade** wan AIChef ultra is built with **0.8mm reinforced steel** — nearly 2× the industry standard — and a **6H anti-scratch glass touchscreen** tougher than most smartphone displays. A pro-grade airflow-simulated thermal management system delivers sustained full-power performance for high-heat cooking and restaurant-style results. **Award-Winning Innovation** wan AIChef ultra has already been recognized by leading global juries: ◦ **IDEA 2026** ◦ **Red Dot Award 2025** ◦ **Best of CES 2026 —****_Suqin Awards Smart Living Showcase_** ◦ **Best of IFA 2025 — ****_Featured by Hunker_** ◦ **Best of IFA 2025 — ****_Suqin Awards_** **Crowdfunding Pricing & Stretch Goals** | **Tier** | **Period/ Date** | **Price** | **Discount** | | Super Early Bird | Sept 1 (Launch Day) | $1,799 | 55% OFF | | Early Bird | Sept 2- Sept 7 | $2,099 | 48% OFF | | Indiegogo Special | Sept 8- Sept 30 | $2,499 | 38% OFF | | Couple Bundle | Sept 1- Sept 30 | $3,999 (2 units) | 50% OFF | | MSRP (Retail) | After Sept 30 | $3,999 | — | Backers will also unlock progressive **Stretch Goals** worth up to **$350 in free bonus value**, including silicone cooking mitts, glass prep bowls, a precision digital kitchen scale, a heritage porcelain plate, a VISIONS® glass soup pot, and an extended 1-year warranty. **A Day With wan AIChef ultra** ◦ **7AM Breakfast** — _Cheesy Eggs in a Hole._ Drop it in.
