## Direct links
- Book directly: https://order.spoton.com/so-cafe-yoto-20313/minneapolis-mn/66a13621c2bcb0c08acba14c (through spoton acting for the business)
- Menu: https://www.cafeyoto.com/menu
- Phone: +1-612-913-4226

## What to fix first
- **Ordering only through doordash.** (+5 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.
