Cam Hazzard is a 20-year-old professional dunker. He did not write the code. He built a Claude agent that sweeps YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn for every unprompted thing people have said about him, scores each mention, logs it in a Google Sheet, and updates the What People Are Saying page on camhazzard.com.
He showed that agent in Detroit with Dylan Haugen at DSDT College’s AI Workforce & Economic Empowerment Summit on June 2, 2026. After the talk, Gale Glickoff of GD Top Notch Construction Inc. said she was going home to sit at the computer and ask the questions.
Who is Cam Hazzard?
Cam Hazzard is a pro dunker selected for Shaquille O’Neal’s DunkMan League. He is also the person who built the Positive Mentions System that Dennis Yu and Local Service Spotlight now document as a repeatable SOP.
He came into the work with no coding background. In a Detroit recap video, Cam said Dennis Yu and Dylan Haugen built him a site during lunch at the JVA Align Volleyball Summit in Dallas. His first assigned task was an agent that turns a transcript into a published article. Two weeks later he was running scheduled agents as normal work.
That Dallas build is the case study on Cam Hazzard’s personal brand playbook. This page is the person hub: who Cam is, what he built, and the Detroit proof. The system hub stays on BlitzMetrics.
What did Cam build without writing code?
The agent finds praise nobody asked for. It is not a review request and not a testimonial form.
It searches YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and related surfaces. It scores each mention. It writes the keepers to a Google Sheet. It updates Cam’s What People Are Saying page after he approves the add.
On the current hub, Dennis Yu recorded the cost gap as under a dollar in tokens versus about $150 of human clicking, and 15 to 20 minutes versus about 10 hours. Cam’s own Magic Berry writeup repeats the dollar-versus-$150 pair. Those are on-camera estimates, not an invoice.
Cam’s personal run is weekly. The agent emails him the new mention and asks whether to publish it. He does not log into WordPress to make the edit.
The same agent is not dunk-only. In the Detroit recap, Cam said he pointed it at Dennis Yu next, across marketing, home services, and education, and got the same class of result. That is the crossover Local Service Spotlight teaches contractors.
What happened at the Detroit AI summit?
DSDT College presented the AI Workforce & Economic Empowerment Summit on Tuesday, June 2, 2026, at the Garden Theater, 3929 Woodward Ave, Detroit. The public program ran 2:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Dennis Yu is listed on the 4:15 p.m. block, AI, Brand & Market Power, with Jenna Evola and Hajj Flemings.
Cam and Dylan are not named on that official speaker list. The on-stage demo is on Local Service Spotlight’s clips, on Cam’s Gale writeup, and in the spoken track of How a two-sided network connects young adults with local businesses, where Dennis brings them on and they walk the agent.
The other Detroit clips on the LSS channel:
- The Magic Berry Challenge with Cam Hazzard — why third-party proof beats a self-pitch
- How I store 75,000 photos and videos without running out of space — same trip, content-library problem, also written up on June 7, 2026
What did Gale Glickoff say after the talk?
Gale Glickoff runs GD Top Notch Construction Inc., a construction-cleanup company in Detroit. LSS’s Gale page calls it one of the only female-owned construction cleanup businesses in the city, with work on the Hudson Building, Little Caesars Arena, and Merchants Row.
On camera she said:
I was totally immersed and inspired by these two young gentlemen who now have inspired me to even be more excited about my own business of 34 years… Now I’m going to go home and get on my computer and sit down and ask the questions.
On her LSS page she also said:
I think it’s gonna change my business dramatically. Let people know what we’ve done — all those things being packaged and put together in one place. That’s been the frustration about running a business.
Start anywhere. Ask it questions. Just sit down with it. Let it interview you.
Cam’s published recap of that moment: AI is not Python. It is talking to the agent like a person. Gale told them she had been doing that with real crews for decades.
Sources disagree on the year count. The YouTube title and Gale’s on-camera line say 34. The Gale case study uses 35 throughout. Quote the source you are standing on.
How does the positive mentions system work?
The full SOP lives on BlitzMetrics as the Positive Mentions System. Cam built the agent. Dennis documented the method. The six steps are:
- GCT — Goals, Content, Targeting. Who you are, what you want to be known for, who the page is for.
- Sweep — every logged-in surface where a mention could live, including YouTube transcripts, not just titles.
- Score — WHO said it, WHERE it appeared, WHAT they said, each 1–10, total out of 30.
- Tracker — one spreadsheet. Date, source, full quote, URL, scores. Gold for 25–30, blue for 18–24.
- Page — trim the quote, use a real face, link out to the original, not back to yourself.
- Amplify — site, weekly email, or a Dollar a Day ad under your own name.
Scoring bands from the SOP:
- 25–30, Tier 1: hero placement
- 18–24, Tier 2: supporting cards
- 10–17: log, hold
- Below 10: archive, do not publish
A positive mention is something someone said without being asked. That is why it outranks a five-star form you handed them.
The older on-site search dashboard at the LSS positive mentions tool is a News / YouTube / X lookup. It is not Cam’s Claude agent.
What is the Magic Berry Challenge?
Before the camera rolled, Dennis set out a sour lemon and a small red berry. Cam ate the lemon. Then he chewed the berry and ate a second wedge of the same lemon. The second wedge tasted sweet.
Dennis’s point on camera: most marketing walks up to a stranger with the lemon (the offer) and tries to talk them into liking it. The berry is trust other people already gave you. Once that is in place, the same offer tastes different.
For Cam, the berries are Dunk Talk episodes, session videos, tags from other dunkers, Dunkademics features, and the London FIBA show. None of that is a pitch. It is other people talking on their own platforms.
The argument is in Cam’s Magic Berry article and in the Magic Berry video. The agent is how a 20-year-old harvests those berries every week for about a dollar.
What does the live output look like?
Cam’s What People Are Saying page is the working example. The live counters on that page, as fetched for this rewrite, are:
- 35+ organic shout-outs
- 19 pros, coaches, and outlets
- 5 platforms (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, podcasts)
- 100% unprompted
The lead quote is Dunkademics on YouTube: “Cam is the future.” Other sourced lines on that page include DunkMan’s official Instagram welcome and the Group A qualifier win at 9.55.
The Group A win writeup is on Cam’s DunkMan Group A page.
How does this apply to local service businesses?
A dunker’s mentions live on YouTube and Instagram. A contractor’s mentions live on Google reviews, Facebook, Nextdoor, and the job-site video they never published. The scoring and the page do not change.
Gale is the local-service proof from the same room. She already knew how to run a crew. The talk gave her permission to run an agent the same way. Her full case is Gale Glickoff’s construction AI visibility page.
That is the AI Builder Program pitch: operators who can direct work, not engineers who can write Python. The same gap showed up later at Dunk Camp, where Dylan and Dennis scored 76 dunkers and found most of them invisible online. That recap is What dunkers and local service businesses have in common.

FAQ
Did Cam write any of the code?
No. Every public writeup of the build, including this site’s earlier version of this hub and Cam’s own Magic Berry article, says he built the agent in Claude without writing code.
What did the Detroit demo cost to run?
Cam and Dennis both publish the same pair: about a dollar per agent cycle, versus about $150 of equivalent human search time. Treat those as stated estimates.
Were Cam and Dylan on the official DSDT speaker list?
No. The program PDF lists Dennis on the 4:15 p.m. block. Cam and Dylan appear in the LSS videos, Cam’s writeups, and the spoken stage tape.
Who is Gale Glickoff?
Gale Glickoff runs GD Top Notch Construction Inc. in Detroit. Her case study is Gale Glickoff’s construction AI visibility page. Cam’s first-person recap is A 34 year business owner told us AI felt like talking to her team.
Where should other Cam articles point?
Here. Cam Hazzard’s personal brand playbook is the Dallas build. The dunkers playbook is the Dunk Camp case. The Gale page is the operator case. The AI Builder Program is the offer page. Those pages orbit this hub. They do not replace it.
