What ThermoPro does
ThermoPro (rebranded to TempPro) is a Toronto, Canada-based consumer electronics company founded in 2014 that designs, manufactures, and sells Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled wireless temperature monitoring devices for the home kitchen and indoor environment. The company’s core product portfolio includes the TempSpike line of smart meat thermometers (with models ranging from a single-probe 500ft Bluetooth device to the 4-probe Wi-Fi TempSpike Pro TP980 with unlimited range), the Lightning instant-read thermometer series (TP622, TP622W), and a broad hygrometer/thermometer line for indoor humidity monitoring, weather stations, and pool thermometers. All smart products integrate with a proprietary TempPro mobile app available on iOS and Android, which provides a Cook Time Estimator algorithm and Analysis Graphs for tracking cooking progress.
The company operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce business through temppro.com, complemented by distribution through Amazon, Walmart, Home Depot, and Canadian retailer RONA. Revenue is generated exclusively through one-time hardware sales, with no subscription required for core functionality; products are priced from approximately $36.99 for entry-level hygrometers to over $200 for premium multi-probe bundles, with value bundles offering 33-53% discounts. Marketing is multi-channel and consumer-focused, leveraging social media (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube), SEO, an extensive recipe and blog content library, email newsletters, and seasonal promotional events (Father’s Day, Prime Day, 4th of July, Game Day).
The company claims over 20 million customers globally, 13,000+ user comments on its testimonials page, and media features in Forbes, Business Insider, America’s Test Kitchen, and Yahoo Finance. It employs 251-500 people, is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, and is led by founder and CEO Peter Liu. In 2024 the company executed a brand transition from ThermoPro to TempPro, updating its domain, logo, and product naming conventions while maintaining its core product strategy.
