§ The result
Beamery leads Keka on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Beamery finishes 24 points clear of Keka under rubric v1.0 — 61 (D) against 37 (F) — across the Sourcing and ATS-integrated cohorts. Beamery leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Keka is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Beamery leads is Human Oversight Design, Beamery 55 to Keka 50. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (Beamery 85, Keka 20) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 48% of the weighted advantage Beamery holds across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +24.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 24.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +24 beside that +24.6.

§ 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.
