§ The result
1 point separates Avature and Knockri.
Avature (ATS-integrated) edges Knockri (Video interview) by 1 point under rubric v1.0, 48 to 47. Knockri takes 1 of the 7 criteria, FRIA Support among them, against 4 for Avature, whose share includes Bias Audit Transparency, and 2 are level. The advantage Avature holds is spread out: Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Avature 40, Knockri 35, 18% weight), yet it supplies only 38% of the weighted points Avature gains across the 4 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to +1.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 2.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +1 beside that +1.9.

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.
