§ The result
2 points separate Darwinbox and Vincere.
Under rubric v1.0, Darwinbox and Vincere finish 2 points apart, 46 to 44, as two ATS-integrated entries. The criteria split evenly, 3 each to Darwinbox and Vincere, with 1 level, and the weighted points on the side Darwinbox holds, headed by Bias Audit Transparency, settle the total. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Darwinbox 28, Vincere 18 — and at an 18% weight it carries 55% of the weighted advantage Darwinbox holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +1.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 5.3 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 +1.2.

§ 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.
