- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (Restaurant).** opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Booking on your own site.** Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
