Report: https://directindex.org/r/kruahouston.com
Scanned: 2026-10-25 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Krua is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open Krua's website. What Krua offers is on another site. To book or order, it is sent to OpenTable, a marketplace.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://direct.chownow.com/order/43281/locations/65199 (through chownow acting for the business)
- Phone: +13464412928
- Address: 6324 Richmond Ave, 77057, Houston

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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
- **Menu or price list is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to chownow.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **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
- **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that don't run scripts see an empty page. Put the menu, hours and address in plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript

## 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.

<script type="application/ld+json">

    }
  ]
}
</script>
```

## 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.
- **Ordering through chownow on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
