Comparison

SarathiLink vs a full TMS

A TMS runs the business side of trucking: customers, rates, invoices, settlements and accounting. Its weakest link is often the driver in the truck. SarathiLink is built for exactly that link, and connects to the TMS you have.

	SarathiLink	Typical full TMS
Customers, rates, quotes	No	Yes
Invoicing and accounting	CSV exports for billing and pay runs	Yes
Driver app with load acceptance	Yes	Varies, often basic
BOL / POD scanning by drivers	Yes, filed with the load, offline	Varies
Driver messages and instructions with read receipt	Yes	Varies
ACE / ACI eManifest status to drivers	Yes, from BorderConnect	Some include eManifest filing
Setup time	Same day	Weeks, often with training
Works with the other	API, CSV import, webhooks	Exports and APIs vary

Three common setups

No TMS yet: dispatch from SarathiLink and export delivered loads for invoicing.
A TMS without a good driver app: send trips from the TMS to SarathiLink and get driver updates back.
A TMS with eManifest filing: keep filing there; SarathiLink shows the status to the driver.

Questions

Does SarathiLink replace my TMS?

Not for rating, invoicing or accounting. It replaces the calls, texts and photos between dispatch and drivers.

How do trips get from my TMS to SarathiLink?

By API or by importing a CSV export; trips sent again are updated, not duplicated.
