§ The result
Indeed leads Pulsifi on all 7 criteria.
Indeed finishes 17 points clear of Pulsifi under rubric v1.0 — 50 against 33 — across the Sourcing and Assessment cohorts. Indeed takes all 7 criteria and Pulsifi none of them; the nearest contest is Human Oversight Design, Indeed 63 to Pulsifi 55. The advantage Indeed holds is spread out: Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Indeed 58, Pulsifi 30, 20% weight), yet it supplies only 32% of the weighted points Indeed gains across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +17.3 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 17.3 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +17 beside that +17.3.

§ 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.
