Abstract	The smart city is a multifaceted paradigm leveraging technology and communication's networks infrastructures to put into effect urban and social development strategies. In this context, the concept of City-as-a-Platform provides new forms of governance, citizens' participation and interaction with municipalities by using information and communication technologies. Platforms are used to deliver public services and to offer accountability and transparency about the government choices. Mobility is one of the most important public services in a city, and the model of Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) provides users with a new way of travelling. Cities and platforms have been already object of philosophical conjectures, even in the past, with some amazing anticipation. In this paper we will move from an overall definition of platform, and, after defining MaaS we will show why and how it is a platform, in the meaning of that definition and we will examine the outcomes that platforms produce, reading them through the lenses of studies at the intersection between technology, philosophy and mobility. We will reframe, in this context, the concept of user involvement and participation, and we will show how indeed the user herself is a part of the platform. © 2021 AEIT.
