# Maiden Korea: Agent-Direct Score D (44.2%) Site: https://maidenkorea.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/maidenkorea.com Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Maiden Korea is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by Maiden Korea's website. What Maiden Korea offers is in a PDF or an image, and assistants read those badly. To book or order, it is sent to Resy, a marketplace. ## Direct links - Menu: https://maidenkorea.com/images/Maiden-Korea-Menu.pdf - Address: 316 5th Ave, 10001-3602, New York ## Nearby, also direct Places near Maiden Korea that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Paris Baguette (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/parisbaguette.com - Osamil (60 m): https://directindex.org/r/osamil.com - Grace Street (80 m): https://directindex.org/r/bygracestreet.com - Karaoke City (100 m): https://directindex.org/r/karaokecitynyc.com - Space Ping Pong Sports Bar and Lounge (100 m): https://directindex.org/r/spacepingpong.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **Booking only through resy.** (+12 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 - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_429) 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 - **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as an HTML page and keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **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) - **The footer says © 2021.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In New York, 73% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later. ## 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. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Maiden Korea > local business in 316 5th Ave, 10001-3602, New York, New York cafes and bars. ## Book or order directly - Menu: https://maidenkorea.com/images/Maiden-Korea-Menu.pdf ## About - Website: https://maidenkorea.com - This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models. ``` ## Already right - **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed. - **Resy works with agents through its partners.** Resy's terms (9 June 2025) bar automated software that crawls, harvests or scrapes the service and require written consent for other automated use; Resy opened bookings inside ChatGPT on 10 August 2026.
