# Sumatrah Balsall Common: Agent-Direct Score D (46.2%) Site: http://www.sumatrah.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/sumatrahonline.com Scanned: 2026-10-21 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Sumatrah Balsall Common is hard for agents to use. AI assistants can't open Sumatrah Balsall Common's website, so they go by what other sites say about it. ## Direct links - Book directly: https://sumatrahonline.com/book-table (on the business's own site) - Order directly: https://sumatrahonline.com/order-now/entree (on the business's own site) - Phone: 02475920797 - Address: 351 Kenilworth Road, CV7 7DL, Birmingham ## Nearby, also direct Places near Sumatrah Balsall Common that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between. - Stockland Balti (2.6 km): https://directindex.org/r/stocklandbalti.com - Via Delhi (3 km): https://directindex.org/r/viadelhi.co.uk - The Goat King UK (3.1 km): https://directindex.org/r/thegoatking.com ## What to fix first - **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (TimeoutError: The operation was aborted due to timeout). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **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 ## Already right - **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents. - **Structured data found (Restaurant).** address, phone, opening hours - **Booking on your own site.** Agents can book without going through a marketplace. - **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without going through a marketplace. ## Where it stands 618 of 947 in Birmingham.
