About Cooktop Safety

The company behind the CTS Smart Cooking Sensor

A Mission for Safer Homes

Founded on a deep commitment to safety and driven by a personal understanding of the risks associated with unattended cooking, Cooktop Safety was created to provide a proactive solution to a common yet dangerous problem. We recognized that traditional smoke alarms and fire extinguishers are reactive—they only work after a fire has started. We set out to build a predictive technology that could prevent fires before they ever have a chance to ignite, offering genuine peace of mind.

The Problem: The Leading Cause of Residential Fires

The statistics are alarming: cooking is the leading cause of all residential fires. Human factors like distraction, multi-tasking, fatigue, and cognitive impairment are often the root cause. This issue is particularly critical for aging populations and in long-term care settings where the risk is heightened.

Our Solution is Predictive Fire Prevention

The CTS Smart Sensor is an AI-powered device that uses thermal imaging to monitor your cooktop and kitchen presence. It analyzes heat patterns in real time to detect and predict hazards. In an emergency, it triggers an alarm and will shut off power to the stove helping prevent accidents before they occur. The most common causes of cooking fires are unattended and distracted, this is where the CTS Smart Kitchen Sensor can help.

Our Commitment to Kitchen Safety and Peace of Mind for Communities

We believe everyone deserves to feel safe at home, allowing both family and professional caregivers and property managers to have tools to protect those in their care. Our non-intrusive, easy-to-install technology is built to last 20 years, providing long-term, reliable protection. We’re committed to innovative solutions that help people live independently and cook with confidence.
