# The Waterfront Museum: Agent-Direct Score D (50.8%) Site: https://waterfrontmuseum.org Report: https://directindex.org/r/waterfrontmuseum.org Scanned: 2026-10-15 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.) The Waterfront Museum is hard for agents to use. An AI assistant can open the website of The Waterfront Museum. It finds no menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds no link to book or order online. ## Direct links - Phone: +1 718 6244719 ## What to fix first - **No ticket link on the website.** (+15 points) Agents find no link to follow on the site. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so an agent can find it. Add a ticket or booking page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website - **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **No tickets and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what does it cost and when' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text and link it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai - **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot.
