§ The result
4 points separate Recruiterflow and Arena Analytics.
Recruiterflow (ATS-integrated) edges Arena Analytics (Screening) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 36 to 32. Arena Analytics takes 1 of the 7 criteria, Bias Audit Transparency among them, against 6 for Recruiterflow, whose share includes Human Oversight Design. Human Oversight Design is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Arena Analytics 38, Recruiterflow 58, 12% weight), but it accounts for only 39% of the weighted advantage Recruiterflow holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -4.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 7.3 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 -4.8.

§ 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.
