§ The result
Dayforce leads VidCruiter on all 7 criteria.
Dayforce scores 57 and VidCruiter 48 under rubric v1.0, a 9-point gap across the ATS-integrated and Video interview cohorts. Dayforce is ahead of VidCruiter on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being Bias Audit Transparency at Dayforce 42 to VidCruiter 38. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Dayforce 74, VidCruiter 58, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 34% of the weighted advantage Dayforce 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 +9.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +9 beside that +9.4.

§ 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.
