§ The result
Workable leads Ceipal on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Workable sits 13 points above Ceipal under rubric v1.0, 48 against 35, with both filed under ATS-integrated. Workable leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Ceipal is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Workable leads is Customer Documentation, Ceipal 53 to Workable 56. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Ceipal 30, Workable 55, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 37% 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 -13.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 13.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -13 beside that -13.4.

§ 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.
