The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna is expected to observe numerous gravitational-wave sources in the mHz band. One promising source class are extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) of a stellar-mass compact object into a massive black hole (MBH). Accurate EMRI waveforms are essential for data analysis, but this is challenging to achieve due to the need to accurately track the phasing of...
