# Ascend Day Spa: Agent-Direct Score B (75.4%)

Site: https://www.ascendspa.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/ascendspa.com
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.)
Ascend Day Spa is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open the website of Ascend Day Spa. It finds no menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://ascendspa.com/pages/body-treatments-in-queens-new-york (on the business's own site)
- Phone: 718-846-4601

## What to fix first
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## 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.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (Organization).** but without address, phone or hours
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without a marketplace in the loop.

## Since the scan of 2026-10-14 (F then)
