Abstract
The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for identifying offers in networking system post. For example, systems and methods described herein identify one or more offer indicators in a networking system post and calculate a confidence score representing a level of confidence that the unstructured networking system post includes a merchant offer. In response to calculating a confidence score above a threshold value, systems and methods described herein prompt the composer of the unstructured post to convert the post into a structured offer. Upon converting the unstructured post into a structured offer, systems and methods described herein intelligently distribute the structured offer for use by networking system users.
