Findings

What to fix first

  1. 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). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

  2. Booking only through resy +12 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. How to fix it About this vendor

  3. Menu or price list is a PDF +3 points

    Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as an HTML page and keep the PDF as a download. How to fix it

  4. 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

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.
  • Resy works with agents through its partners Resy's terms (9 June 2025) bar automated software that crawls, harvests or scrapes the service and require written consent for other automated use; Resy opened bookings inside ChatGPT on 10 August 2026. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://resy.com/terms. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
