§ The result
Checkr leads HirePro on all 7 criteria.
The Screening cohort pairing of Checkr and HirePro comes out 54 to 38 under rubric v1.0, a 16-point lead for Checkr. Of the 7 criteria HirePro wins none, and the narrowest lead Checkr holds is on Bias Audit Transparency, Checkr 35 to HirePro 33. One criterion, Article 11 Technical Documentation, is both the widest raw gap (Checkr 70, HirePro 30) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 20% weight it makes up 51% of the weighted advantage Checkr holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +15.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 15.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +16 beside that +15.6.

§ 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.
