# Matsu: Agent-Direct Score B (83.1%)

Site: https://matsu.ae/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/matsu.ae
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.)
Matsu is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open the website of Matsu. It finds no menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://matsu.ae/pages/shipping-delivery (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +971 2 556 0096

## What to fix first
- **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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+1 points) Missing: telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

## 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 (TobaccoShop).** address, opening hours
- **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without a marketplace in the loop.
