I remember seeing this app a couple months ago and being excited about a team finally doing this. They've been available in New York City for a while and now they're trying to raise money to expand to more places. Hopefully they open source the app\server in the future since it would be great to have more co-op apps for the other "gig economy" style apps.

Well, in sole cities in France we have Uber ~~Shit~~ Eats alternatives owned by the people who make the deliveries, and it's smooth sailing so far.

I think it's way better this way, because entitled/abusive customers lose a lot of the power they usually have.
