Why Table Mining Now?
Tables are the connective tissue of scientific reports, enterprise systems, and financial decision making. We elevate tables to become native reasoning artifacts for AGI, empowering models with precise structure, semantic context, and executable toolchains.
Human-AI Collaboration
Multi-stage workflows provide interpretable reasoning plans and verifiable outputs for analysts.
Simulation to Deployment
Benchmarks mirror messy real-world tables so agents stay robust beyond curated datasets.
Open Science
We share toolchains, prompts, and datasets to accelerate community progress in structured reasoning.
