§ The result
Adaface leads Ceipal on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Adaface (Assessment) edges Ceipal (ATS-integrated) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 39 to 35. Adaface leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Ceipal is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Adaface leads is Bias Audit Transparency, Adaface 22 to Ceipal 20. The advantage Adaface holds is spread out: Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Adaface 38, Ceipal 30, 20% weight), yet it supplies only 36% of the weighted points Adaface gains across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +4.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +4 beside that +4.5.

§ 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.
