§ The result
Tenzo AI takes the total, HiBob takes more of the criteria.
Tenzo AI sits 10 points above HiBob under rubric v1.0 — 56 against 46 — with Tenzo AI filed under Screening and HiBob under ATS-integrated. HiBob leads more of the criteria than Tenzo AI — 4 to 3 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Tenzo AI leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Tenzo AI. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (HiBob 20, Tenzo AI 83) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 93% of the weighted advantage Tenzo AI holds across the 3 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -9.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 15.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -10 beside that -9.3.

§ 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.
