# The Nerdist School: Agent-Direct Score C (56.9%) Site: https://nerdistschool.com Report: https://directindex.org/r/nerdistschool.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.) The Nerdist School is partly visible to agents. An AI assistant can open The Nerdist School'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: http://www.nerdistschool.com/podcast-booth-bookings/ (on the business's own site) - Address: 7518 W Sunset Blvd, 90046-3408, Los Angeles ## Nearby, also direct Places near The Nerdist School that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Toi On Sunset (50 m): https://directindex.org/r/toirockinthaifood.com - Tacos Neza (50 m): https://directindex.org/r/tacosneza.com - Aroma (240 m): https://directindex.org/r/aromasunset.com - BBQ+RICE Korean Rice Bowl WeHo (280 m): https://directindex.org/r/bbqrice.com ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it. - **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 ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD).
