A model wrote this from the stored answers and the scan's facts, and nothing else. The answers themselves are quoted below, under "What assistants answer".

What to fix first
- No booking or ordering link on the website +13 points
There's only a phone number or WhatsApp, and agents can't use those yet. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page. How to fix it
- No menu or price list found +7 points
Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. How to fix it
- Structured data is incomplete +6 points
Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. How to fix it
- No llms.txt no points, but worth doing
Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. How to fix it
