§ The result
Pinpoint leads HiBob on all 7 criteria.
Pinpoint sits 11 points above HiBob under rubric v1.0, 57 against 46, with both filed under ATS-integrated. Of the 7 criteria HiBob wins none, and the narrowest lead Pinpoint holds is on Human Oversight Design, HiBob 63 to Pinpoint 64. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (HiBob 20, Pinpoint 42, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 37% of the weighted advantage Pinpoint holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -10.6 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.6 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -11 beside that -10.6.

§ 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.
