§ The result
HiredScore leads HireQuotient on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, HiredScore opens an 18-point lead on HireQuotient, 52 to 34, with both scored in the Sourcing cohort. Of the 7 criteria HireQuotient wins none, and the narrowest lead HiredScore holds is on Human Oversight Design, HiredScore 60 to HireQuotient 57. Even Bias Audit Transparency, the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (HiredScore 55, HireQuotient 18, 18% weight), is only 37% of the weighted advantage HiredScore builds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +17.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 17.9 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +18 beside that +17.9.

§ 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.
