We're honored to be featured on the Tech It Out podcast for the second time! Our founder and CEO, Akshita Iyer, joined host Marc Saltzman to discuss the evolution of smart kitchen technology, the recent launch of our Smart Knob 2.0, and Ome's mission to enhance home safety and convenience.

Akshita Iyer, founder and CEO of Ome, was featured on the nationally syndicated radio program HomeTalk with Michael King. During the interview with co-host Rita Crompton, Akshita discussed how the Ome Smart Knob enhances kitchen safety and convenience by allowing users to upgrade their existing stoves with intelligent controls. She highlighted the device's ability to automatically control and turn off the stove, providing a seamless integration into modern kitchens.

We're excited to be featured on AppleInsider and the HomeKit Insider Podcast, where Ome’s founder & CEO, Akshita Iyer, joined the conversation on the future of smart kitchens.

In this episode of the Raising Tech Podcast, Transforming Technology Culture in Senior Living, powered by Parasol Alliance, Matt Reiners, Chief Growth Officer, chats with Akshita Iyer, Founder and CEO of Ome, about her inspiring journey to create a smart knob that can turn any stove into a safer, smart appliance.

Originally launched under the name Inirv, Ome’s journey began with a simple idea born from a personal experience — retrofitting stoves to prevent kitchen fires and help those aging in place. From a 3D-printed prototype in 2016 to delivering their first product through Kickstarter, Akshita shares the highs and challenges of bringing a hardware product to life, including turning down a Shark Tank deal and navigating complex safety standards.

Ome’s founder and CEO Akshita Iyer talked to Michael Wolf of The Spoon to share her journey with Ome — from developing the first 3D-printed prototype as a side hustle, to launching a Kickstarter and appearing on SharkTank, to now bringing the Gen 2 Smart Knob to market.

HomeKit Insider podcast host Andrew O’Hara and his guest Gilles Drieu, CTO of security company ADT, discuss the latest smart home news, including the launch of the next-gen Ome Smart Knob! We’re thrilled to be highlighted alongside other amazing smart home products on this insightful episode.

On this episode of Trestle Tactics, Akshita Iyer, CEO and Founder of Ome, reconnects with Aaron Fish, Founder/CEO at Trestle Hospitality Concepts, to take an up-close-and-personal look at Ome’s Gen 2 Smart Knob.

Founder and CEO Akshita Iyer was interviewed by Fred Fishkin of Techstination, discussing Ome’s latest milestone — the launch of its next-generation Smart Knob!

Akshita shares all about the new Smart Knob, how it works, how it’s different from the Gen 1 device, who it’s for, how it supports older adults aging in place, and so much more. 

Technology can be incredibly powerful in supporting older adults who stay at home as they age. It can provide a safer environment, help maintain independence and overall well-being, and provide peace of mind for their loved ones.
