HYPERWUMPUS

HYPERWUMPUS

Same dreams. Bigger builds.

I'm Misael Payan. I build software, make content, and turn the problems I run into into things other people can use. HyperWumpus is where all of that lives.

THE CREATOR HyperWumpus + Nexus

Welcome to my world

Built here. Shared everywhere.

The stream, the software, the characters. Different corners of the same HyperWumpus world.

THE NEW DIRECTION Crimson. Graphite. Neon. A world that connects the work.

The work

Different problems.
Same builder.

Tools for the work I do, the people I help, and the things I wish were easier. Built under HyperWumpus, with a companion for each product family.

01 / Lead response · Local MVP

LeadFlow

A new lead shouldn't get lost
between “hello” and “booked.”

A lead-management tool for local service businesses. Capture quote requests, qualify the lead, draft a reply, and keep the next follow-up in view.

What works today?

The local MVP includes a public quote-request form, rule-based scoring, response drafts, pipeline statuses, an activity log, and a follow-up queue. Automatic SMS/email sending and booking integrations are future additions, not included capabilities.

02 / Client discovery · In development

SCOUTER / Glitch

Find the problem.
Make the fix worth paying for.

My Sandbox venture started with a simple workflow: audit a business's online presence, pitch a specific improvement, then do the work. SCOUTER brings discovery and client work into one place.

Setup + app overview ↗Explore SCOUTER ↗
How does it fit with LeadFlow?

SCOUTER helps identify and document a business problem. LeadFlow is a possible solution when that problem is missed inquiries or weak follow-up. They are separate tools today; this is a shared workflow, not an automatic integration.

03 / Organization · Product family in development

Kura

A place for the ideas.
And a way to follow through.

Organization tools for ideas, research, and the work that gets scattered across too many tabs. Kura is the home for that family of products, with the LM extension as one early direction.

Where is Kura going?

The larger idea spans organizational software and, eventually, physical products. Those extensions are exploration, not available products. There is no public Kura download linked here yet.

06 / CREATOR TOOL

YouTube Analytics Toolkit

Bring in YouTube Studio CSV exports and compare reach, retention, engagement, and subscriber sources. A way to inspect the evidence before deciding what to make next.

About

The person behind the projects.

I’m Misael Payan, a Software Engineering student at BYU-Idaho building in the Sandbox program as a one-person team. Before that, I spent 4+ years in enterprise IT support at Melaleuca, coordinating critical incidents across global teams and building practical automation.

I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and I prototype with AI-assisted workflows. As HyperWumpus, I make gaming and personality content. Business and fitness content are directions I want to develop, not published series yet.

Gaming & content

Genji main.
Creator. Builder.

Games, videos, music, and probably another project. It's all part of HyperWumpus.

The new stream direction brings the same characters and cyberpunk style into YouTube and Twitch. Nexus stays by my side. Glitch and Kura get their own corners of the world.
