§ The result
3 points separate Knockri and Emmersion.
Knockri holds a 3-point edge over Emmersion under rubric v1.0, 47 to 44, across the Video interview and Assessment cohorts. Emmersion takes 3 of the 7 criteria, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them, against 4 for Knockri, whose share includes Bias Audit Transparency. The advantage Knockri holds is spread out: Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Emmersion 28, Knockri 35, 18% weight), yet it supplies only 35% of the weighted points Knockri gains across the 4 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -2.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -3 beside that -2.4.

§ 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.
