§ The result
JobAdder leads Loxo on 5 of the 7 criteria.
JobAdder scores 45 and Loxo 37 under rubric v1.0, an 8-point gap across the ATS-integrated and Sourcing cohorts. JobAdder leads 5 of the 7 criteria and the remaining 2 are level, so Loxo is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 5 JobAdder leads is Post-Market Monitoring, JobAdder 43 to Loxo 40. One criterion, Article 11 Technical Documentation, is both the widest raw gap (JobAdder 50, Loxo 30) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 20% weight it makes up 47% of the weighted advantage JobAdder holds across the 5 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to +8.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.4 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 +8.4.

§ 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.
