§ The result
Ashby leads The Predictive Index by 8 points.
Ashby scores 56 and The Predictive Index 48 under rubric v1.0, an 8-point gap across the ATS-integrated and Assessment cohorts. Ashby leads 6 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while The Predictive Index leads 1, including Post-Market Monitoring. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Ashby 62, The Predictive Index 45, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 36% of the weighted advantage Ashby 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 +8.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.7 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +8 beside that +8.5.

§ 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.
