1. A method comprising:
receiving, at an intermediation server, a request containing requested item characteristics for items provided by a set of provider systems;
generating, at the intermediation server, an intermediate reply defining a set of items matching the characteristics in the request, the set of items provided by a subset of the provider systems;
determining, at the intermediation server, that a first item of the set of items is eligible for provider-specific adjustment;
generating, at the intermediation server, an adjusted reply by:
communicating with a hosted offer management system to receive instructions for adjusting the first item in the intermediate reply, the hosted offer management system providing hosted provider object services for the provider systems; and
adjusting, at the intermediation server, the first item in the intermediate reply based on the instructions, to generate an adjusted first item; and
providing, from the intermediation server, the adjusted reply in response to the request, the adjusted reply defining (i) the adjusted first item, and (ii) a remainder of the set of items defined in the intermediate reply, excluding the first item.
