About

A studio that ships its own products, then works on yours.

Imagine Peak Studios is directed by Matthew Hartley. The studio builds and ships its own AI-native platforms, then brings that same product discipline to client work — product strategy, design, engineering, and original media production under one roof.

Flagship work is Harmonic Wave, a platform that builds Host-led shows, films, and portrait shorts around the story behind a song. Matthew Hartley Music is its first public artist catalog — an album written and directed here, being released chapter by chapter, and running on the platform end to end. RoboticWorks, compliance infrastructure for autonomous systems, is in research and development.

Harmonic Wave

A platform for telling the story behind a song. Harmonic Wave builds a Host-led show around a track — film, lyric video, and portrait shorts — and the artist approves how their music is presented before production begins.

An automated production workflow, with human review at key stages, brings the song, the Host, and the visual story together. The creator's context stays with the music across films, shorts, and discovery through compatible AI agents. It is the studio's flagship product and the proof of its method.

Self-serve signup is not open yet. We are taking song projects now; the waitlist is open for wider access.

Matthew Hartley Music

A live artist platform and story-driven album experience powered by Harmonic Wave, including an artist-owned MCP server for agent-delivered listening.

The Time Is Now is being released chapter by chapter — an auditory and visual experience. Chapter I is streaming on the major platforms now, with later chapters planned. Connected, compatible AI clients can discover and stream what is available as one continuous experience.

We combine product thinking, media direction, and AI engineering — design tools like Figma and Adobe CC alongside agentic coding environments and generative audio — moving from concept to production at the speed of modern tooling, with the craft of a studio.

This is not prototyping for its own sake. It is production-minded experience development.
