Despite a significant increase of over 30% in per-pupil spending since 2010, the United States continues to grapple with issues related to student engagement and performance in its education system. This persistent challenge is underscored by the fact that there has been no discernible improvement in math, reading, and science proficiency in the country since the turn of the millennium, as reported by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in 2019. Contemporary EdTech solutions prioritize tailoring learning experiences based on students understanding levels. While this is crucial, it often neglects the unique qualities that make each student and their learning journey special. Unlike traditional approaches, the Unicorn platform excels at creating individualized learning profiles that grasp the distinct aspects that set each student apart and what makes learning personally meaningful to them. Our technology harnesses data-driven insights to enhance student performance and engagement in a truly special way. By deploying machine learning, Unicorn navigates the intricate terrain of each students neurological processes, constructs models to uncover the hidden gems within, and crafts bespoke assignments and assessments. With Unicorn, we empower students by recognizing and celebrating what makes their learning experience truly special and distinctive.

URCompeds mission: URCompeds mission is to help players receive exciting comp travel offers at casinos and cruise lines around the world. Why we started URComped: Craig worked as Executive Casino Host onboard a cruise ship and would take care of VIP players that were cruising for free. The crazy thing was that on every cruise there would be players that were gambling more than the "VIPs"​ but were paying full price for their trips. They didnt receive comps because they werent "known players"​ to the casino. We started URComped to help players get the comps they deserve at casinos everywhere, not just ones that they have played at before. How URComped works: Normally, casinos only give comps like free hotel rooms to players that have already played at that particular property or another casino under the same brand. The casino needs to know what kind of player someone is before they give away free stuff. Makes sense. URComped changes the game by letting players qualify themselves before they visit. This allows players to be Comped on their very first trip. If you are a player getting comped somewhere, URComped will get you comps anywhere.
