§ The result
Equalture leads XOR on all 7 criteria.
Equalture sits 14 points above XOR under rubric v1.0 — 44 against 30 — with Equalture filed under Assessment and XOR under Screening. Equalture leads every one of the 7 criteria, XOR none of them, and the closest of the 7 is FRIA Support, Equalture 30 to XOR 25. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Equalture 45, XOR 20, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 35% of the weighted advantage Equalture holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.
Vendor profile
Equalture
Equalture is a game-based pre-employment assessment platform whose short browser games measure candidates' cognitive abilities and behavioural tendencies and convert them into a Fit Score ranked against an employer-specific "Success Profile" derived from that employer's own top performers.
Vendor profile
XOR
XOR is a text-first conversational-AI recruiting platform that pre-screens and scores high-volume and hourly candidates with recruiter-defined knockout/scoring questions over SMS, WhatsApp, and Messenger, then auto-schedules interviews on the recruiter's calendar.
§ The record
Equalture is filed under Assessment AI, XOR under Screening AI. They record no secondary category in common.
Both are in scope of NYC LL 144, Illinois HB 3773, EU AI Act and Colorado AI Act. Only Equalture is in scope of Mobley v. Workday.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +14.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 14.4 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +14 beside that +14.4.
§ Category-by-category
Raw score per criterion, with weighted delta.
Δ is Equalture minus XOR.

§ 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.
