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.)
Yogi Tea is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Yogi Tea'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 on the site.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://yogi-life.com/en-US/contact/orders (on the business's own site)
- Phone: (310) 275-9891
- Address: 1616 Preuss Rd, 90035, Los Angeles
- Prices: 7 prices on the site, the middle one $6.99
- Languages: English

## Nearby, also direct
Places near Yogi Tea that take a booking or an order on their own website, with no marketplace in between.
- A Food Affair (200 m): https://directindex.org/r/afoodaffair.com
- Cado Mexican Kitchen (410 m): https://directindex.org/r/kitchen1437.com
- Founders Ale House (550 m): https://directindex.org/r/foundersalehouse.com
- Shalom Pizza (550 m): https://directindex.org/r/shalompizza.com
- Pizzeria Sei (560 m): https://directindex.org/r/pizzeriasei.com

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) 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
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **7 prices on the landing page, the middle one $6.99.** In Los Angeles, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $14.50.

## 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.
