Report: https://directindex.org/r/bowldbbq.com
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Bowl'd is partly visible to agents.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://order.online/store/bowld-korean-rice-bar-43173 (through doordash_storefront acting for the business)
- Menu: https://www.bowldbbq.com/_files/ugd/a06ab3_ea5bd2d03c2848fc83a017ee5c2688da.pdf
- Phone: +1-510-526-6223

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 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
- **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as HTML, keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## 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.
- **Ordering through doordash_storefront on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
