It's a cool idea. And an evolution of black car service (they have to be called and don't normally solicit for work).

As like any other hire service, they operate under a difference set of rules. They have to be licensed, need to meet size requirements, and they have to carry much more insurance.

Some random driver with a pickup and just basic PIP coverage probably wouldn't be a good choice. Especially if you are paying for it.

Also, reading their website, they are very interested in working with limo companies and cab services not random guy with 30 minutes to spare. So no, this is not like AirBNB, at all.
