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.
  • Structured data found (FoodEstablishment) address, opening hours
  • Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
  • Ordering through toast on your own domain There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
  • Toast works with agents through its partners Toast's guest terms could not be read on 2026-10-15 (bot challenge); since August 2026 Google's Ask Maps completes orders at Toast restaurants through Toast Local under the UCP for Food standard. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.digitaltransactions.net/square-toast-jump-into-ai-boosted-google-maps/. 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.
