§ The result
Sapia.ai leads The Predictive Index on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Sapia.ai scores 56 and The Predictive Index 48 under rubric v1.0 — an 8-point gap inside the Assessment cohort. Sapia.ai leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so The Predictive Index is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Sapia.ai leads is Customer Documentation, The Predictive Index 60 to Sapia.ai 62. Article 11 Technical Documentation is both the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing — The Predictive Index 50, Sapia.ai 70 — and at a 20% weight it carries 47% of the weighted advantage Sapia.ai holds across the 6 criteria on that side of the table.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 6 figures above sum to -8.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 8.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -8 beside that -8.5.

§ 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.
