§ The result
Braintrust AIR leads Dover on all 7 criteria.
Braintrust AIR sits 14 points above Dover under rubric v1.0 — 59 against 45 — with Braintrust AIR filed under Screening and Dover under Sourcing. Braintrust AIR takes all 7 criteria and Dover none of them; the nearest contest is Customer Documentation, Braintrust AIR 63 to Dover 60. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Braintrust AIR 58, Dover 34, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 36% of the weighted advantage Braintrust AIR holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.
