§ The result
HighMatch leads Brazen on 6 of the 7 criteria.
HighMatch scores 43 and Brazen 38 under rubric v1.0, a 5-point gap across the Assessment and Screening cohorts. HighMatch leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Brazen is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 HighMatch leads is Post-Market Monitoring, Brazen 38 to HighMatch 40. The advantage HighMatch holds is spread out: Human Oversight Design is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Brazen 46, HighMatch 60, 12% weight), yet it supplies only 34% of the weighted points HighMatch gains across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -5.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -5 beside that -5.0.

§ 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.
