§ The result
2 points separate Turing and SeekOut.
Turing (Assessment) edges SeekOut (Sourcing) by 2 points under rubric v1.0, 36 to 34. Turing leads 4 of the 7 criteria, including Article 11 Technical Documentation, while SeekOut leads 1, including Bias Audit Transparency, and 2 are level. The heaviest weighted swing runs the other way — SeekOut takes Bias Audit Transparency at 18%, SeekOut 40 to Turing 28, 100% of the weighted advantage SeekOut holds — while the widest raw gap sits on Customer Documentation, SeekOut 35 to Turing 48.
Vendor profile
SeekOut
Sourcing platform aggregating public profile data into a searchable talent index, with AI-assisted candidate matching and outreach.
Vendor profile
Turing
Turing is an AI-powered talent platform that vets software engineers through automated multi-stage technical assessments and uses machine-learned ranking to score, match, and place them with client companies.
§ The record
SeekOut is filed under Candidate sourcing AI, Turing under Assessment AI. They record no secondary category in common.
Both are in scope of EU AI Act, Colorado AI Act and NYC LL 144. Only Turing is in scope of Illinois HB 3773 and Mobley v. Workday.

Weighted delta is the raw difference times the criterion weight, so the 5 figures above sum to -1.9 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 6.2 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads -2 beside that -1.9.
§ Category-by-category
Raw score per criterion, with weighted delta.
Δ is SeekOut minus Turing.

§ 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.
