Our Editorial Mission

Projunicorn is an independent editorial hub that publishes practical guides, frameworks and analysis on data interoperability, AI governance, education technology, data privacy and digital infrastructure. Our goal is to make these topics accessible and actionable for the administrators, technology leaders and decision-makers who need to navigate them.

We believe that organizations — especially those serving public missions like schools — deserve clear, independent information about the technology decisions they make: what to require from vendors, how to govern data responsibly, how to evaluate AI systems, and how to build digital infrastructure that serves their mission over the long term rather than creating lock-in and dependency.

What We Cover

Data Interoperability: Standards, APIs, system integration, vendor evaluation and the practical work of connecting data systems in a way that is reliable, secure and governed.

AI Governance: Accountability frameworks, procurement checklists, risk assessment templates and practical guidance for organizations deploying AI-assisted tools.

Education Technology: EdTech vendor evaluation, student data privacy (FERPA, COPPA), district data governance and the specific data challenges of K-12 education systems.

Data Privacy: Privacy by design, data minimization, vendor contract terms, retention policies and practical checklists for protecting sensitive information.

Decision Science: Expected value, probability, risk management frameworks and data-driven decision-making guides for organizational leaders.

Digital Infrastructure: Data portability, vendor lock-in, API design and the technology architecture decisions that shape long-term organizational outcomes.
