Benefits for consumers through enhanced competition of MaaS platforms
Contrary to social media platforms which have so-called lock-in effects, drivers and consumers can freely choose and switch between ride-hailing platforms to their personal advantage. The winner-takes-all principle is not applicable to MaaS platforms: several MaaS platforms can and will coexist in the future.
While it is important to ensure a balance of power between a future MaaS platform and operators, the development of MaaS platforms must not be restrained by overly prescriptive approaches to data management.
