§ The result
Pinpoint leads SeekOut on all 7 criteria.
Pinpoint finishes 23 points clear of SeekOut under rubric v1.0 — 57 against 34 — across the ATS-integrated and Sourcing cohorts. Pinpoint leads every one of the 7 criteria and 4 of them by 20 raw points or more, Article 11 Technical Documentation among them; SeekOut leads none. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Pinpoint 72, SeekOut 35, 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 +22.7 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 22.7 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +23 beside that +22.7.

§ 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.
