Report: https://directindex.org/r/yaskinchicago.com
Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
YA Skin Studio is mostly ready for agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by YA Skin Studio's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Mangomint.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://booking.mangomint.com/524117 (through mangomint acting for the business)
- Order directly: https://yaskinchicago.com/shop/direct-delivery-vitamin-c/ (on the business's own site)
- Phone: +13129293531
- Address: 230 E Ohio St Unit 112, 60611, Chicago
- Prices: 5 prices on the site, the middle one $99.00

## What to fix first
- **No price list of services found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost?' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page that lists services and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+6 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_429) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **5 prices on the landing page, the middle one $99.00.** 

## Fix kit: What to paste

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **Appointments through mangomint on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without going through a marketplace.
