§ The result
Equalture takes the total, Manatal takes more of the criteria.
Equalture (Assessment) edges Manatal (ATS-integrated) by 3 points under rubric v1.0, 44 to 41. Manatal leads more of the criteria than Equalture — 4 to 3 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Equalture leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Equalture. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Equalture 40, Manatal 22 — and at an 18% weight it carries 53% of the weighted advantage Equalture holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +3.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.5 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 +3.7.

§ 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.
