§ The result
Jobma leads Paycor on all 7 criteria.
Jobma scores 49 and Paycor 40 under rubric v1.0, a 9-point gap across the Video interview and ATS-integrated cohorts. Jobma is ahead of Paycor on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being Human Oversight Design at Jobma 60 to Paycor 55. The advantage Jobma holds is spread out: Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (Jobma 55, Paycor 40, 20% weight), yet it supplies only 31% of the weighted points Jobma gains across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +9.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 9.7 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +9 beside that +9.7.

§ 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.
