# National Gallery of Canada: Agent-Direct Score C (55.8%) Site: http://www.gallery.ca/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/gallery.ca 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.) National Gallery of Canada is partly visible to agents. Some AI assistants are turned away by National Gallery of Canada's website. What National Gallery of Canada offers is on another site. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site. ## Direct links - Book directly: https://www.gallery.ca/admission-tickets (on the business's own site) - Phone: +16139901985 ## What to fix first - Languages: English - **No structured data for the business.** (+14 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (TouristAttraction, Museum, TravelAgency or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **Tickets and prices is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to adp.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business - **The phone number on the site doesn't match the open map data.** The site shows (613)%20990-1985, but OpenStreetMap or Overture Maps lists +16139901985. An assistant that sees two numbers can't tell which one to trust. Fix whichever is wrong, on the site or in the map data at openstreetmap.org. ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # National Gallery of Canada > local business in 380 Sussex Dr, K1N, Ottawa, Ottawa tours, attractions and museums.
