# Blades Co.: Agent-Direct Score D (50.8%) Site: http://bladesco.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/bladesco.com Scanned: 2026-10-24 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Blades Co. is hard for agents to use. An AI assistant can open Blades Co.'s website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. To book or order, it is sent to Booksy, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Order directly: https://squareup.com/appointments/book/qw2wy4ufstlq5y/L6Y1RXFC23159/start (through square acting for the business) - Address: Washington Street 614 94111 San Francisco - Step-free access (OpenStreetMap) ## Nearby, also direct Places near Blades Co. that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Aura Skin Spa (130 m): https://directindex.org/r/auraskinspa.com - TLEE Spas + Wellness (170 m): https://directindex.org/r/tleespas.com - Gloss Studio (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/glossstudiosf.com - Salon A7 (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/salona7.co ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (HairSalon, BeautySalon or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **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 that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **Appointments only through booksy.** (+5 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript - **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Blades Co. > hair salon in Washington Street 614 94111 San Francisco, San Francisco hairdressers and beauty salons. ## Book or order directly - Order: https://squareup.com/appointments/book/qw2wy4ufstlq5y/L6Y1RXFC23159/start (through square acting for the business) ## About - Website: http://bladesco.com/ - This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models. ``` ## Already right - **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents. - **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response. - **Ordering through square on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours. ## Where it stands 505 of 1040 in San Francisco hairdressers and beauty salons.
