Description
A little unorthodox perhaps, but a while ago for my own project I built isochrones that solves/sends results O(log(n))
https://isochrones.regia.io/
Would mapbox be interested? I would love to continue working on this and perhaps open source (ideal). Current what I am showing is only Utah, and tops 30 min, but given more time, it could render on the gpu rather than svg's and also I tested with 3 hour isochrones and it's still pretty instant (less than a second locally)
edit - also I used an OSRM like algorithm in that the accuracy is down to the second on the road

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing JavaScript isochrone generator and the linked demo at https://isochrones.regia.io/, then compare the proposal with the repository description of the Matrix API and CONREC polygonization. The issue does not identify a file, test, concrete change, or acceptance criteria, so the target scope and definition of done would need to be established first.
