§ The result
Pinpoint leads Recruitly on all 7 criteria.
Under rubric v1.0, Pinpoint opens a 16-point lead on Recruitly, 57 to 41, with both scored in the ATS-integrated cohort. Recruitly leads none of the 7 criteria, and Pinpoint is ahead on 3 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Pinpoint 72, Recruitly 45, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 33% of the weighted advantage Pinpoint holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +16.1 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 16.1 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +16 beside that +16.1.

§ 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.
