Commenting on the launch, Mahek Mody, CEO & Co-founder, Up, said, “Technology is transforming the way we interact with our home appliances, making them smarter, more efficient, and more connected than ever before.

At Up, we want to be at the forefront of this transition and lead the way in creating innovative, connected appliances that truly level up our customers’ lives. Features like automated meal planning to health goals, integration with quick grocery delivery and portion control are coming.”
Founded by IIT-Bombay alumni, Mahek Mody (ex-Ather Energy) & Mohit Sharma (ex-Chaayos) the startup has already had hundreds of households across the country cooking with the delishUp and effectively reducing their reliance on online delivery. With the rising focus on healthy lifestyles and choices, the startup has identified that there are people who want to shift to home cooking but there lies a gap between what they want to cook vs what they can cook.
