Findings

What to fix first

  1. No structured data for the business +15 points

    Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it

  2. Booking only through opentable +12 points

    Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. How to fix it About this vendor

  3. No llms.txt no points, but worth doing

    Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. How to fix it

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.
  • Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
  • OpenTable works with agents through its partners OpenTable's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; OpenTable names over 200 authorized partners, Google, Meta and OpenAI among them, as the channels through which agents book. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. 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.
