§ The result
HeyMilo leads Paycor on all 7 criteria.
HeyMilo finishes 21 points clear of Paycor under rubric v1.0 — 61 (D) against 40 (F) — across the Screening and ATS-integrated cohorts. Of the 7 criteria Paycor wins none, and the narrowest lead HeyMilo holds is on Post-Market Monitoring, HeyMilo 46 to Paycor 38. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (HeyMilo 83, Paycor 25) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 50% of the weighted advantage HeyMilo holds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +21.0 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 21.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +21 beside that +21.0.

§ 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.
