§ The result
Bryq leads Humanly by 15 points.
Bryq finishes 15 points clear of Humanly under rubric v1.0 — 57 against 42 — across the Assessment and Screening cohorts. Bryq leads 6 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while Humanly leads 1, including Human Oversight Design. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Bryq 70, Humanly 40, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 35% of the weighted advantage Bryq holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +14.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 15.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +15 beside that +14.9.

§ 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.
