§ The result
Equalture takes the total, BambooHR takes more of the criteria.
Equalture (Assessment) edges BambooHR (ATS-integrated) by 1 point under rubric v1.0, 44 to 43. BambooHR leads more of the criteria than Equalture — 4 to 2 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Equalture leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Equalture. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — BambooHR 28, Equalture 40 — and at an 18% weight it carries 78% of the weighted advantage Equalture holds across the 2 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -1.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.4 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 -1.1.

§ 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.
