DeepPrep: An LLM-Powered Agentic System for Autonomous Data Preparation

Summary: DeepPrep uses execution-grounded LLM agents to construct data-preparation pipelines, materializing intermediate tables for runtime feedback. Tree-based reasoning enables non-local revision, while progressive agentic training yields GPT-5-level accuracy at 15× lower inference cost. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Aug 28 2026)
