§ The result
Loxo leads XOR on all 7 criteria.
Loxo scores 37 and XOR 30 under rubric v1.0, a 7-point gap across the Sourcing and Screening cohorts. Loxo is ahead of XOR on all 7 criteria but on none of them by as much as 20 raw points, the closest being Bias Audit Transparency at Loxo 20 to XOR 18. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Loxo 30, XOR 20, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 28% of the weighted advantage Loxo holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.
Vendor profile
Loxo
Loxo is an AI-native talent-intelligence platform that combines candidate sourcing, a recruiting CRM, and an applicant tracking system, using proprietary ranking models and a self-built talent graph of 800M+ people to source, rank, and match candidates for recruiting and staffing firms.
Vendor profile
XOR
XOR is a text-first conversational-AI recruiting platform that pre-screens and scores high-volume and hourly candidates with recruiter-defined knockout/scoring questions over SMS, WhatsApp, and Messenger, then auto-schedules interviews on the recruiter's calendar.
§ The record
Loxo is filed under Candidate sourcing AI, XOR under Screening AI. They record no secondary category in common.
Both are in scope of EU AI Act, Colorado AI Act and NYC LL 144. Only XOR is in scope of Illinois HB 3773.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 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.
