§ The result
Ribbon leads AmazingHiring on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Ribbon scores 43 and AmazingHiring 37 under rubric v1.0, a 6-point gap across the Screening and Sourcing cohorts. Ribbon leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so AmazingHiring is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Ribbon leads is FRIA Support, AmazingHiring 30 to Ribbon 33. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (AmazingHiring 22, Ribbon 38) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 44% of the weighted advantage Ribbon holds across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -6.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -6 beside that -6.5.

§ 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.
