# Genesis House: Agent-Direct Score D (53.8%) Site: http://GenesisHouse.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/genesishouse.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Genesis House is hard for agents to use. An AI assistant can open Genesis House's website. It can read what Genesis House offers. To book or order, it is sent to Resy, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Menu: https://www.genesishouse.com/us/en/nyc/restaurant.html#menu - Address: 10th Avenue 40 - Languages: English ## Nearby, also direct Places near Genesis House that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Rory's Rooftop (60 m): https://directindex.org/r/puttery.com - Valbella (130 m): https://directindex.org/r/valbellarestaurants.com - Little Eats (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/pearlriver.com - Maki a Mano (190 m): https://directindex.org/r/makiamano.nyc - Verde New York (200 m): https://directindex.org/r/verde-nyc.com ## What to fix first - **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **Booking only through resy.** (+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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **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 ## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored) - **The footer says © 2022.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In New York, 76% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later. ## 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. ``` # Genesis House > restaurant in 10th Avenue 40, New York. ## Book or order directly - Menu: https://www.genesishouse.com/us/en/nyc/restaurant.html#menu ## About - Website: http://GenesisHouse.com/ - This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models. ``` ## Already right - **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed. - **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. - **Resy works with agents through its partners.** Resy's terms (9 June 2025) bar automated software that crawls, harvests or scrapes the service and require written consent for other automated use; Resy opened bookings inside ChatGPT on 10 August 2026.
