Findings

What to fix first

  1. The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included +25 points

    A plain fetch was refused (challenge:attention required). 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. How to fix it

  2. No booking or ordering link on the website +15 points

    There's no link on the site for an agent to follow. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so agents can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it

  3. 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. How to fix it
