§ The result
Vervoe leads Pillar by 6 points.
Vervoe scores 46 and Pillar 40 under rubric v1.0, a 6-point gap across the Assessment and Screening cohorts. Vervoe leads 5 of the 7 criteria, including Bias Audit Transparency, while Pillar leads 2, including FRIA Support. Bias Audit Transparency is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Pillar 38, Vervoe 52, 18% weight), but it accounts for only 38% of the weighted advantage Vervoe holds across the 5 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to -5.4 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -6 beside that -5.4.

§ 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.
