Tavola is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Tavola's website. It can read what Tavola offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Tock.

## What to fix first
- **No working HTTPS.** (+3 points) The page is only served over plain http. Browsers and agents rank it lower or refuse it.
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. 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

## 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.

## About

- Website: http://www.tavolampls.com
- This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models.
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- **Structured data found (FoodEstablishment).** address, phone
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Booking through tock on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Ordering through bentobox on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Tock works with agents through its partners.** Tock's terms (12 February 2026) prohibit robots, scripts, scrapers and automated systems except software expressly licensed by Tock; Google names Tock as an AI Mode booking partner. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.exploretock.com/terms. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
