# Anima: Agent-Direct Score D (53.8%)

Site: https://anima.london
Report: https://directindex.org/r/anima.london
Scanned: 2026-10-15 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Anima is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by the website of Anima. It can read what Anima offers. To book or order, it is sent to OpenTable, a marketplace.

## Direct links
- Menu: https://www.anima.london/menu
- Phone: +44 20 8568 8599

## What to fix first
- **Booking only through opentable.** (+12 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

# Anima

> restaurant (indian) in London. Phone +44 20 8568 8599.

## Book or order directly

- Menu: https://www.anima.london/menu

## Opening hours

Mo-We off; Th 17:00-22:00; Fr-Sa 10:00-23:00; Su 10:00-22:00

## About

- Website: https://anima.london
- This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models.
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **Structured data present (LocalBusiness).** address, phone
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **OpenTable works with agents through its partners.** OpenTable's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; OpenTable names over 200 authorized partners, Google, Meta and OpenAI among them, as the channels through which agents book. Read 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.

## Since the scan of 2026-10-14 (F then)
- Fixed: The site could not be read at all
- New: The server turned AI crawlers away at the door; Almost no text without JavaScript; Structured data was incomplete; Booking only through a marketplace; No llms.txt
