Willo (Video interview) edges Canditech (Assessment) by 2 points under rubric v1.0, 41 to 39. Willo leads 5 of the 7 criteria, including Human Oversight Design, while Canditech leads 2, including FRIA Support.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -1.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 3.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -2 beside that -1.7.

§ 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.
