§ The result
Vincere leads XOR on 6 of the 7 criteria.
Vincere sits 14 points above XOR under rubric v1.0 — 44 against 30 — with Vincere filed under ATS-integrated and XOR under Screening. Vincere leads 6 of the 7 criteria and the remaining criterion is level, so XOR is ahead on none of them; the closest of the 6 Vincere leads is Post-Market Monitoring, Vincere 40 to XOR 33. One criterion, Article 11 Technical Documentation, is both the widest raw gap (Vincere 55, XOR 20) and the heaviest weighted swing, and at 20% weight it makes up 48% of the weighted advantage Vincere holds across the 6 criteria it leads.
Vendor profile
Vincere
Access Vincere Evo is a recruitment-agency CRM and ATS from The Access Group whose Copilot AI scores candidates against a job on a 1-5 star scale, ranks the closest matches from the agency database, and generates job ads, candidate summaries and screening chatbots.
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
Vincere 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 6 figures above sum to +14.5 — the difference between the two totals before either is rounded. Shares are of 14.5 points of movement counted without direction. The table below rounds each side to a whole number first, so its Δ raw total reads +14 beside that +14.5.

§ 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.
