People vastly underestimate the work it takes to build Lyft/Uber because it's simple to use.
They would need someone to do all the legal/compliance work, validate drivers, handle marketing, handle payments, detect and combat fraud, resolve disputes, and the million other things you don't think about when you use the service.

It would be incredibly cool if each of these pieces could be subscribed to as a service. Especially if there was a way to expose your business surface area, domain knowledge, etc. in a way that it could "seamlessly" plug in.
