Within the ATS-integrated cohort, Jobvite edges Manatal by 4 points under rubric v1.0, 45 to 41. Manatal leads more of the criteria than Jobvite — 4 to 3 — but Article 11 Technical Documentation, which Jobvite leads, carries 20% of the rubric, and the weighted sum still falls to Jobvite.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +4.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.7 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +4 beside that +4.8.

§ 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.
