Scanned: 2026-10-17 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Lobbs is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open the website of Lobbs. It finds no menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. To book or order, it is sent to OpenTable, a marketplace.

## Direct links
- Phone: +61 3 9388 1471

## What to fix first
- **Booking only through opentable.** (+12 points) Every agent transaction goes through the marketplace and its commission. Add a direct path on your own site, even a simple form. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer' from marketplaces instead. Add a menu or price list page and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## Fix kit: What to paste

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (CafeOrCoffeeShop).** address, phone, opening hours
- **OpenTable works with agents through its partners.** OpenTable's terms page could not be fetched on 2026-10-15; OpenTable names over 200 authorized partners, Google, Meta and OpenAI among them, as the channels through which agents book. Read 2026-10-15: https://mynews13.com/fl/orlando/business/2026/07/14/opentable-new-terms. An assistant that is not a partner may not finish the step there; a direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
