# Gyotaku: Agent-Direct Score D (40%)

Site: https://gyotakuhawaii.com/locations-south-king-street/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/gyotakuhawaii.com
Scanned: 2026-11-12 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Gyotaku is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants can't open Gyotaku's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## What to fix first
- **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
- **Booking only through opentable.** (+5 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

## 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.

## 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
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Ordering through doordash_storefront on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
