Hi, I’m Lee.
After 17 years running my own business, I’ve learned something most productivity advice won’t tell you: technology only works when it fits the life you’re building. Not the other way around.
I spent years collecting tools, testing platforms, and stacking systems — convinced the next one would finally make everything click. It didn’t. What clicked was getting clear on what I actually needed before committing to anything new.
That experiment became DigiNav Compass™.
What this is…
DigiNav Compass™ Signal is where I share what I’m learning about AI and automation — the real version. Real experiments, real mistakes, honest breakdowns of what’s working and what I’m abandoning. No polish. No guarantees. Just learning out loud.
This isn’t a hype channel. I’m not here to sell you on the next tool or tell you to automate everything. I’m here to help you think through what actually fits your business before you commit time and money to it.
Who this is for…
Solopreneurs and small teams who are caught between two fears: falling behind on AI and wasting resources on the wrong choices.
You’re not looking for someone to tell you what to do. You want a thinking partner who’ll help you sort through the noise and make decisions that make sense for your business — not someone else’s playbook.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything right and still feel behind, you’re in the right place.
What you’ll find here…
Decide What Fits — Frameworks for evaluating AI and automation options, so you stop collecting tools and start connecting them.
The Messy Middle — Works-in-progress, real experiments, and honest breakdowns of what I’m testing and adjusting in real time.
Signals — Short, grounded updates — reflections, patterns I’m noticing, or connective notes to keep you oriented without demanding much time.
If you only read one thing occasionally, find the category that meets you where you are right now.

A bit more about me…
I’m Lee Drozak — solopreneur, strategist, and the person behind DigiNav Compass. I’ve been running my own businesses for 17+ years, starting with hand-coded HTML and a WordPress agency that served 200+ clients. Now I’m winding that down and focusing on what I do best: helping people make clear decisions about technology.
I’m a Gen Xer who’s lived through dial-up, floppy disks, and now the era of AI agents. I read the instructions, but don’t always follow the book. I run experiments so you don’t have to.
I’m not an AI expert. I’m a thinking partner. There’s a difference.
