Already right
- robots.txt lets AI crawlers in There's no robots.txt, which means everything is allowed.
- AI crawlers get the page GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- Fresha works with agents through its partners Fresha's terms of use (August 2026) bar automated programs, bots and scraping; sanctioned assistant integrations exist (ChatGPT and Claude through Fresha's MCP server, Gemini, Alexa), and clients complete the booking on Fresha. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://terms.fresha.com/terms-use. 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.
