Induction plate adapters exist [1] - I haven't used one specifically for that purpose, but have used a diffuser plate which works on a similar principle.
The adapters are around AUD $20-50 which sounds like a cheap way to to start migrating your cookware collection to ferro bases.
I gather they're not great -- somewhat inefficient, and will necessarily have a more torpid response to temperature changes on the induction cooktop, shouldn't be used at high-temperatures -- but they do mean you don't have to replace all your cookware instantly.
If someone needs high temp and doesn't have a suitable pan already, cast iron is ridiculously cheap.
