Site: https://www.neonave.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/neonave.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.)
Neon Avenue is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Neon Avenue'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 on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.neonave.com/our-stylists (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://brenda-alcantar-salon.square.site/ (through square acting for the business)
- Phone: +13128543805
- Address: 111 N Wabash Ave Ste 1805, 60602, Chicago

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Neon Avenue that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.

- Danny Valles L.l.c (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/dannyvalles.com
- Chanese Mitchell Lmt (40 m): https://directindex.org/r/holistictherapypros.com

## What to fix first
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and 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
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+4 points) Missing: address, telephone. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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 © 2024.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site.

## 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.
