Report: https://directindex.org/r/thestudionz.com
Scanned: 2026-10-17 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
The Studio is partly visible to agents.
An AI assistant can open The Studio's website. What The Studio offers is on another site. To book or order, it is sent to Fresha, a marketplace.

## Nearby, also direct
Places near The Studio that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.

- Oasis Beauty Studio (970 m): https://directindex.org/r/oasisbeautystudio.co.nz
- Illuminate Me (1.1 km): https://directindex.org/r/illuminateme.co.nz

## What to fix first
- **Appointments only through fresha.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Price list of services is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to fresha.com, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## 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.

## 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 (LocalBusiness).** address, phone
- **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.
