Example embodiments provide a system and method for inferring preferences from message metadata and conversations. A networked system receives, over a network, a communication that is a part of a conversation involving one or more users, whereby the networked system is a participant in the conversation. The networked system analyzes the communication including inferring a preference of a user among the one or more users based on metadata in the communication. The networked system triggers a search process based in part on the inferred preference. The networked system then generates and transmits to the user a customized response comprising results of the search process.

Inferring preferences from message metadata and conversations

Example embodiments provide a system and method for analyzing conversations and determining whether to participate with a response. A networked system receives, over a network, a communication that is a part of a conversation involving one or more users, whereby the networked system is a participant in the conversation. The networked system analyzes the communication including parsing key terms from the communication. The networked system then identifies a sentiment of a user among the one or more users based on the parsed key terms. Based on the identified sentiment, the networked system determines whether to respond to the communication. In response to a determination to respond, the networked system generates a customized response and transmits the customized response, over the network, to a device of the user. The customized response may comprise questions or a set of options related to the conversation.
