§ The result
4 points separate BambooHR and Canditech.
BambooHR (ATS-integrated) edges Canditech (Assessment) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 43 to 39. BambooHR leads 6 of the 7 criteria, including Post-Market Monitoring, while Canditech leads 1, including Human Oversight Design. Post-Market Monitoring is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (BambooHR 44, Canditech 32, 12% weight), but it accounts for only 32% of the weighted advantage BambooHR 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 +4.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.9 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 +4.1.

§ 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.
