Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
The London Smile Clinic is mostly ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by The London Smile Clinic's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through HSOne.

## What to fix first
- **No list of services and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they treat and what does it cost?' from directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **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)
- **5 prices on the landing page, the middle one £295.** In London, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is £80.00.

## Fix kit: What to paste

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