ala

What to fix first

1. No structured data for the business +15 points

   Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

2. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +10 points

   Live fetches as GPTBot (cloudflare_challenge), ClaudeBot (cloudflare_challenge), PerplexityBot (cloudflare_challenge) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it

3. No llms.txt no points, still worth doing

   Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. How to fix it

Already right

• robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
• Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read items and prices directly.
• Booking on your own site Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
• Ordering on your own site Agents can order without a marketplace in the loop.

What agents get for ala

The links an assistant is sent when it books, orders or reads the menu for this business, where each leads, and when a browser last checked it. The same record is served as JSON at /api/direct/ala-dc.com, through the MCP tool direct_record and in the city feed /city/washington/direct.json.

Stable links that count: /go/ala-dc.com/book, /go/ala-dc.com/order, /go/ala-dc.com/menu answer 302 to the links above; the count is the line "followed N direct links" on this page.

Owners: claim the business below to correct this record; the claim email carries the link.

Can an agent transact?

Measured, not scored: the Agent-Direct Score stays at specification v1.0. This says which rails an agent could transact through today, and what the booking or ordering vendor's terms allow.

Not measured at this scan; the next scan measures it.

The next scan also reads the contact, menu and booking pages one hop deeper; facts found there can change the score.

Level 1 of 5, Basic Web Presence

The standards an agent looks for before it reads a page, on the same criteria as Cloudflare's Agent Readiness scan. Not part of the score; each missing item links to a how-to. Cloudflare's report.

What assistants answer

Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.

Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
