Scanned: 2026-10-19 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Denim & Smith Barbershop is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants can't open Denim & Smith Barbershop's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://denimandsmith.com/pages/calgary-all (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +14034542555

## What to fix first
- Prices: 3 prices on the site, the middle one CA$65.00

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **3 prices on the landing page, the middle one CA$65.00.** In Calgary, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is CA$66.25.

- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). 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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Price list of services is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to fresha.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Fix kit: What to paste

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without going through a marketplace.
