Cook anything using our professionally developed, multi-step cook-programs. To make the perfect steak, June automatically switches back and forth between roast, broil and bake.
Awesome pair of founders and this looks like quite a beast of a product. There's been a number of companies that have tried incremental technology implementations in the kitchen (eg I have a digital probe etc), but I haven't seen anything close to going as far as this. Per the description, it really does seem to be a computer that cooks.
@mvanhorn : it looks like you ramped to a team of 22 pretty fast. given you've got so much tech in this product, where did you start by going about creating it and what roles were your first few hires?
@_jacksmith Thanks, Jack! Our first hire was an electrical engineer, Amanda Tyree. Breakdown of the team right now is: 3 Mechanical Engineers, 3 Oven Engineers (UI, frameworks, embedded), 1 Manufacturing Design Engineer, 2 UI/UX designers, 2 Electrical Engineers, 2 iOS Engineers, 1 Machine Intelligence engineer, 2 Server engineers, 2 PMs
@nikbhogal : You've got an insane amount of tech in there. Is there any other tech that you thought about including, but that didn't make the cut (even insane stuff like including Apple Pay to sell your cookies or something)
Great concept and video. It's about time someone replaced the old fashioned grimy toaster ovens. Bravo. When do you see the price point going down from $3k?
At first I was like, "really?" but when I read some of the features and descriptions, I'm pretty impressed.
Could you imagine if every microwave even just had the weighing feature? I hate guessing the weight of 6 chicken breasts when thawing.
The weighing feature alone solves so many problems. If no one has done that, I would license that patent.
Some of the other things seem gimmicky and really add to the $3k price tag.
Nikhil and I are really excited to share June with everyone today. Kitchen innovation has been stagnant for years, not much has come since the microwave was popularized in the 70s. So we set out to create the June Intelligent Oven. This is a countertop oven that will bring restaurant quality results to the food you make in your kitchen. We would love to hear from you.
What features would you like to see on the oven and in our applications? What types of recipes should we develop before shipping?
P.S
Product Hunters get $100 off with code "PH100". This will be taken off your final order!
I've seen this thing in real life - it's one of the coolest/most professional hardware startup products I've ever seen. Very cool guys and congrats on the launch.
As someone who wants to cook better but doesn't have the time to put in to learn, this is awesome! As someone without a boatload of cash to spare, not so awesome. Looking forward to following your journey!
And please name your next product July haha
Yea, it's cool and all but the people on PH must be making some serious dough, pun intended, to consider paying this much for a toaster oven.
If I were to come home with this, even considering the PH discount, my wife would kick me out of the house and tell me to live in the darn thing because it costs as much as our mortgage payment. I guess there's a market for just about everything and I wish this company luck, they seem to know what they're getting into.
This seems like an amazing product with great tech but the reserve now button is a bit misleading. It would be helpful if you disclosed your pricing upfront. Great product though!
Really like and intrigued by this new product! I've been hearing a lot about the remake of kitchen appliances and nice to see this one take the leap. Looks like a beautiful design and lots of powerful features. I want to take the leap and reserve with you guys but big Q for me is what was QA like (and for how long) and is there a warranty/prod support? Thanks and congrats.
@bonfire202 Eric - Right now we're just saying a 1 year warranty, but we care about customer experience. Especially on our first pre-order users, if it's breaks and our fault, we will fix it.
