ELT-Bench: An End-to-End Benchmark for Evaluating AI Agents on ELT Pipelines
Summary: ELT-Bench is an end-to-end benchmark for AI agents orchestrating realistic ELT workflows across databases, tools, code, and SQL, spanning 100 pipelines, 835 sources, and 203 models. State-of-the-art agents generate only 11.3% of models, exposing substantial automation gaps. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
