§ The result
Workable leads Brazen on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Workable sits 10 points above Brazen under rubric v1.0 — 48 against 38 — with Workable filed under ATS-integrated and Brazen under Screening. Workable 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 Workable leads is Customer Documentation, Brazen 55 to Workable 56. The widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing fall on different criteria: Human Oversight Design (Brazen 46, Workable 62) and Article 11 Technical Documentation at 20% (Brazen 40, Workable 55), the second being 31% of the weighted advantage Workable holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -9.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -10 beside that -9.6.

§ 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.
