things to fix
Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
Since the scan of 2026-10-14: no change in the findings.
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Dentist, MedicalClinic, Physiotherapy or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. How to fix it
Agents have nothing to act on. Add an online appointment page on your own domain. How to fix it
Live fetches as GPTBot (challenge:access denied), ClaudeBot (challenge:access denied), PerplexityBot (challenge:access denied) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it
Agents answer 'what do they treat and what does it cost' from directories instead. Add a page with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. How to fix it
Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. How to fix it
No one is listed yet to fix this in Boston dentists, clinics and vets. List your agency or yourself: free, reviewed by hand.

Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.
Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
Owners who score well embed the badge; it links back here and updates with every scan.
