Shout out to Namma Yatri [1] app in Bengaluru, India. It is developed by a payments startup called Juspay. It is endorsed by the Auto Rickshaw Drivers Union. It was launched in November of 2022 and has since done about 5m rides and drivers have earned 9m USD [2]. The entire app, backend and protocol is completely open source [3]. Seems like it uses a fair bit of Haskell and Nix!

As a customer, the app and service works really well. It is now my first choice to look for an Auto ride compared to Uber / Ola.
