# Bo.lan: Agent-Direct Score B (75.7%)

Site: http://www.bolan.co.th/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/bolan.co.th
Scanned: 2026-10-22 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Bo.lan is mostly ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Bo.lan's website. It can read what Bo.lan offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through TableCheck.

## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+5 points) Missing: address, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_429) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, Google-Extended.** (+2.5 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents

## 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.

## Already right
- **Structured data found (Restaurant).** phone
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Booking through tablecheck on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
