Scanned: 2026-10-20 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Café Soleil is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open Café Soleil's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (http_403). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. 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.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Booking through an unrecognised third party.** (+9 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Menu or price list is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to 24rhein.de, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2019.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Cologne, 66% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **No English version declared.** Visitors from abroad, and assistants answering in English, read the page as it is. In Cologne, 14% of comparable sites declare one.

## 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.
