§ The result
HiredScore leads Knockri by 5 points.
HiredScore scores 52 and Knockri 47 under rubric v1.0, a 5-point gap across the Sourcing and Video interview cohorts. HiredScore leads 3 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while Knockri leads 1, including FRIA Support, and 3 are level. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (HiredScore 55, Knockri 35) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 60% of the weighted advantage HiredScore holds across the 3 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 4 figures above sum to +5.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +5 beside that +5.3.

§ 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.
