§ The result
The Predictive Index leads RecruitBot on all 7 criteria.
The Predictive Index sits 11 points above RecruitBot under rubric v1.0 — 48 against 37 — with The Predictive Index filed under Assessment and RecruitBot under Sourcing. The Predictive Index leads every one of the 7 criteria, RecruitBot none of them, and the closest of the 7 is Human Oversight Design, The Predictive Index 52 to RecruitBot 50. Even Bias Audit Transparency, the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing (The Predictive Index 45, RecruitBot 22, 18% weight), is only 38% of the weighted advantage The Predictive Index builds across the 7 criteria it leads.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +10.8 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.8 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +11 beside that +10.8.

§ 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.
