Season Recap
Shark Tank Season 16 Recap: Every Deal Worth Knowing
Season 16 by the numbers: 64 pitches, 48 recorded on-air deals, the largest reported amounts and available buying information.
Bucket Golf had Season 16’s largest recorded offer: $1,000,000 for 12.5% equity with Mark Cuban. It was one of 48 pitches that reached an accepted on-air agreement during the 2024–2025 season. This recap brings those results together so you can find a product, compare the available terms or return to its episode.
The index lists 64 pitches across 16 episodes. Of those, 48 have accepted-deal outcomes and 16 have no-deal outcomes, giving the season a 75% deal rate. The recorded company amounts total $12,538,000. These describe the broadcast agreements; whether an investment later closed is a separate question for the company update.
Bucket Golf and the other large offers
Bucket Golf’s seven-figure offer stands above the rest of the season’s amount list. TRUFIT follows at a recorded $750,000 for 10% equity, with Rashaun Williams. Several pitches share a $500,000 amount, including Y’all Sweet Tea and PhoLicious; the same dollar figure does not mean they had the same equity stake or participants.
Use the ranked list below to open each pitch. The company record gives the available amount, equity and named sharks, and identifies any special structure that is recorded. It is a more useful comparison than assuming the largest offer made a company the season’s most successful business.

The four Episode 16 results
Episode 16 brought AirTulip, JaneFoodie, RuffLiners and SockCandy to the Tank. AirTulip did not accept an on-air deal. JaneFoodie reached an agreement with Lori Greiner, with reported terms of $300,000 for 25%. SockCandy agreed with Barbara Corcoran on $150,000 for 10%.
RuffLiners reached an agreement with Robert Herjavec. The reported terms were $200,000 for 10%, plus a $1 royalty per unit until the $200,000 was returned. That royalty is part of the offer, so the cash and equity figures alone leave out an important condition. The company sources confirm the JaneFoodie and RuffLiners participants; their cash, equity and royalty terms are reported in the accompanying recaps.

Finding a pitch by category or episode
Sports & Outdoors has the most Season 16 entries, with 13 pitches. Food & Drink and Home & Lifestyle each have 11, followed by Fashion & Beauty with 10. Those categories offer a practical way to narrow a search if you remember the kind of product but not its name.
If you remember the broadcast, use the season guide’s episode links. Each episode groups its pitches and shows their recorded outcomes. A no-deal result means no accepted agreement on air; it does not establish that every shark declined, or explain what happened to the business afterward.
What the recap can help you compare
Start with the pitch you remember, then compare its opening ask with the recorded accepted terms. For a shared deal, read the participating names without assuming they contributed equal amounts. A missing individual share remains unassigned even when the company-level amount is known.
For buying information or a later deal update, continue to the individual company page. The season totals describe the recorded pitches, while those pages give the available buying notes and any reported developments after filming.
