§ The result
isolved leads Pillar on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, isolved, filed under ATS-integrated, finishes on 47 and Pillar, filed under Screening, on 40, 7 points apart. Pillar is ahead on none of the 7 criteria: isolved takes 6, the remaining criterion is level, and the nearest of those 6 is Customer Documentation, isolved 56 to Pillar 50. The advantage isolved holds is spread out: Post-Market Monitoring is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (isolved 47, Pillar 33, 12% weight), yet it supplies only 24% of the weighted points isolved gains across the 6 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to +7.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 7.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +7 beside that +7.1.

§ 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.
