§ The result
Greenhouse leads Ceipal on all 7 criteria.
Rubric v1.0 separates Greenhouse and Ceipal, both ATS-integrated entries, by 32 points: 67 (D) for Greenhouse, 35 (F) for Ceipal. Greenhouse leads every one of the 7 criteria and 4 of them by 20 raw points or more, Bias Audit Transparency among them; Ceipal leads none. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Ceipal 20, Greenhouse 86, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 37% of the weighted advantage Greenhouse holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -32.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 32.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -32 beside that -32.4.

§ 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.
