# Beast & Co: Agent-Direct Score F (35.4%)

Site: https://www.beastandco.com.au
Report: https://directindex.org/r/beastandco.com.au
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Beast & Co is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Beast & Co, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://beastandco.com.au/reservations-t%26c (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://beastandco.com.au/food-1
- Phone: 0283670985

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (TimeoutError: The operation was aborted due to timeout); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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. 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.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Restaurant",
  "name": "Beast & Co",
  "url": "https://www.beastandco.com.au",
  "telephone": "0283670985",
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": -33.8828679,
    "longitude": 151.2159547
  },
  "acceptsReservations": "https://beastandco.com.au/reservations-t%26c",
  "hasMenu": "https://beastandco.com.au/food-1",

      "@type": "ReserveAction",
      "target": {
        "@type": "EntryPoint",
        "urlTemplate": "https://beastandco.com.au/reservations-t%26c",
        "actionPlatform": [
          "http://schema.org/DesktopWebPlatform",
          "http://schema.org/MobileWebPlatform"
        ]
      },
      "result": {
        "@type": "Reservation",
        "name": "Reservation"
      }
    }
  ]
}
</script>
```

## 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.
