§ The result
Alva Labs leads Recruitee on all 7 criteria.
Alva Labs finishes 19 points clear of Recruitee under rubric v1.0 — 61 (D) against 42 (F) — across the Assessment and ATS-integrated cohorts. Alva Labs leads every one of the 7 criteria, Recruitee none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Human Oversight Design, Alva Labs 63 to Recruitee 58. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Alva Labs 78, Recruitee 42, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 38% of the weighted advantage Alva Labs holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Shares are of 19.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +19 beside that +19.1.

§ 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.
