- **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 toast 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.
