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.
- Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
- Resy works with agents through its partners Resy's terms (9 June 2025) bar automated software that crawls, harvests or scrapes the service and require written consent for other automated use; Resy opened bookings inside ChatGPT on 10 August 2026. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://resy.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.
