§ The result
Sensei AI leads LockedIn AI by 6 points.
Sensei AI scores 33 and LockedIn AI 27 under rubric js-v1.0 — a 6-point gap inside the Live interview cohort. Sensei AI leads 5 of the 7 criteria, including Employer & ATS Legitimacy, while LockedIn AI leads 2, including Data & Credential Safety. Employer & ATS Legitimacy is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (LockedIn AI 10, Sensei AI 25, 15% weight), but it accounts for only 32% of the weighted advantage Sensei AI holds across the 5 criteria on that side of the table.

§ 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.
