§ The result
Equalture leads Pillar on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Equalture (Assessment) edges Pillar (Screening) by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 44 to 40. Equalture leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so Pillar is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Equalture leads is Bias Audit Transparency, Equalture 40 to Pillar 38. Data Governance Disclosure is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Equalture 55, Pillar 45, 15% weight), but it accounts for only 37% of the weighted advantage Equalture holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +4.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 4.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +4 beside that +4.1.

§ 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.
