HiringBranch holds a 4-point edge over Jobylon under rubric v1.0, 52 to 48, across the Assessment and ATS-integrated cohorts. Jobylon leads more of the criteria, 4 against 3 for HiringBranch, yet HiringBranch takes Bias Audit Transparency, which carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum with it. Bias Audit Transparency is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — HiringBranch 60, Jobylon 28 — and at an 18% weight it carries 81% of the weighted advantage HiringBranch holds across the 3 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +4.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +4 beside that +4.9.
