# Origen: Agent-Direct Score C (67.7%)

Site: https://www.origencocina.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/origencocina.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Origen is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open the website of Origen. What Origen offers is in a PDF or an image, which assistants read poorly. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.origencocina.com/reservations (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://www.toasttab.com/origen-3831-park-boulevard/giftcards?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExWld5WHJhSDF2eE1RYzA5YwEes14E3q0Tz5XDej1ClMjElklhElYZmP-jyBPN7fvEeU0jJQLLsrym4KTAGgM_aem_dNIENr4O06BZK0PN5jqcWw (through toast acting for the business)
- Menu: https://www.origencocina.com/s/menu-origen-3.pdf

## 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). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as HTML, keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## 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.
