§ The result
Recruit CRM leads XOR on all 7 criteria.
Recruit CRM, filed under ATS-integrated, comes out 10 points above XOR, filed under Screening: 40 against 30 under rubric v1.0. Recruit CRM takes all 7 criteria from XOR without a 20-point raw gap on any of them; the closest is Bias Audit Transparency, Recruit CRM 20 to XOR 18. The widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing fall on different criteria: Human Oversight Design (Recruit CRM 58, XOR 40) and Article 11 Technical Documentation at 20% (Recruit CRM 34, XOR 20), the second being 27% of the weighted advantage Recruit CRM 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 +10.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 10.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +10 beside that +10.5.

§ 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.
