# How Claude recommends hotels, restaurants and cafés

> Claude can search the web before it answers. What it looks at when someone asks for a place to stay or eat, and how to check what it says about you.

Claude, made by Anthropic, can search the web when a question needs current information, such as where to stay or eat. Like other assistants, it then names a few places and explains why.

## What Claude looks for

Claude reads the pages its search returns: guides, listings, review pages and business websites. It tends to favour places that are described clearly and consistently, and to say when information may be out of date.

## What helps

- Plain-text facts on your website: location, prices, hours, policies.
- Consistent details across your site and listings.
- Coverage in sources that write about your area.

## Allowing it to read your site

Anthropic's crawlers identify themselves by name. If your robots.txt or firewall blocks them, Claude learns about you from other sites instead. Our [AI crawler check](https://akkrev.com/tools/ai-crawler-check/) shows which AI crawlers your site lets in.

## Check what it says

Ask Claude the questions your guests ask. Note who it names and the sources it cites.
