Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Impak Hair & Nail Design is hard for agents to use.
AI assistants can't open Impak Hair & Nail Design's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.impakhairnailsdesign.com/book-online (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://www.impakhairnailsdesign.com/gift-card
- Phone: +1 613-565-1353

## What to fix first
- Prices: 28 prices on the site, the middle one CA$14.03

## 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 Ottawa, 58% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **28 prices on the landing page, the middle one CA$14.03.** In Ottawa, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is CA$55.00.

- **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.

- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- **Structured data found (LocalBusiness).** address, phone
- **Price list of services is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Appointments on your own site.** Agents can book an appointment without going through a marketplace.
