§ The result
Textkernel takes the total, 365Talents takes more of the criteria.
Textkernel scores 51 and 365Talents 46 under rubric v1.0 — a 5-point gap inside the Sourcing cohort. 365Talents leads more of the criteria than Textkernel — 4 to 3 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Textkernel leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Textkernel. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (365Talents 18, Textkernel 55) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 90% of the weighted advantage Textkernel holds across the 3 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -4.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -5 beside that -4.4.

§ Evidence
Cited sources and documented absences, criterion by criterion.
An absence is a finding, not a blank: the reviewer looked for a named artefact and recorded that it is not located. Where a source sits is a fact about hosting only.
