§ The result
Recruitee leads XOR on all 7 criteria.
Recruitee sits 12 points above XOR under rubric v1.0 — 42 against 30 — with Recruitee filed under ATS-integrated and XOR under Screening. Recruitee leads every one of the 7 criteria, XOR none of them, and the closest of the 7 is FRIA Support, Recruitee 27 to XOR 25. Article 11 Technical Documentation is the widest raw gap and the heaviest weighted swing at once (Recruitee 42, XOR 20, 20% weight), but it accounts for only 36% of the weighted advantage Recruitee holds across the 7 criteria on that side of the table.
Vendor profile
Recruitee
Collaborative applicant tracking system, part of the Tellent group, with AI-assisted features for job-description generation, screening candidates against team-defined criteria, resurfacing past applicants, and summarizing evaluation feedback.
Vendor profile
XOR
XOR is a text-first conversational-AI recruiting platform that pre-screens and scores high-volume and hourly candidates with recruiter-defined knockout/scoring questions over SMS, WhatsApp, and Messenger, then auto-schedules interviews on the recruiter's calendar.
§ The record
Recruitee is filed under ATS-integrated AI, XOR under Screening AI. They record no secondary category in common.
Both are in scope of EU AI Act, NYC LL 144, Colorado AI Act and Illinois HB 3773.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 7 figures above sum to +12.2 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 12.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +12 beside that +12.2.

Raw score per criterion, with weighted delta.
Δ is Recruitee minus XOR.

§ 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.
