§ The result
2 points separate TalentLens and Equalture.
Under rubric v1.0, TalentLens and Equalture finish 2 points apart, 46 to 44, as two Assessment entries. The criteria split evenly, 3 each to Equalture and TalentLens, with 1 level, and the weighted points on the side TalentLens holds, headed by Article 11 Technical Documentation, settle the total. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — Equalture 45, TalentLens 52 — and at a 20% weight it carries 45% of the weighted advantage TalentLens holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

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 -2 beside that -1.5.

§ 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.
