Greenhouse
End-to-end applicant tracking system and structured-hiring platform, now layered with 'Greenhouse AI' features such as resume parsing, Talent Matching, and interview summarisation.
Concerning
ATS-integrated
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.
Substantial gaps
Screening
The result
Greenhouse leads XOR on all 7 criteria.
Greenhouse (ATS-integrated) and XOR (Screening) are 37 points apart under rubric v1.0, 67 (D) for Greenhouse against 30 (F) for XOR. XOR leads none of the 7 criteria, and Greenhouse is ahead on 5 of them by 20 raw points or more, Bias Audit Transparency among them. Even Bias Audit Transparency, the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Greenhouse 86, XOR 18, 18% weight), is only 33% of the weighted advantage Greenhouse builds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +37.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 37.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +37 beside that +37.1.

Raw score per criterion, with weighted delta.
Δ is Greenhouse minus XOR, coloured for whichever of the two it favours.

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.
