§ The result
Tezi takes the total, Indeed takes more of the criteria.
Tezi scores 58 and Indeed 50 under rubric v1.0, an 8-point gap across the Screening and Sourcing cohorts. Indeed leads more of the criteria than Tezi — 3 to 2 — but Bias Audit Transparency, which Tezi leads, carries 18% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Tezi. One criterion, Bias Audit Transparency, is both the widest raw gap (Indeed 38, Tezi 83) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 18% weight it makes up 79% of the weighted advantage Tezi holds across the 2 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to -7.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 13.0 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -8 beside that -7.5.

§ 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.
