About Color Palette
Color Palette analyzes an image and returns its dominant colors as hex codes you can copy straight into a design tool or stylesheet. Use it to pull a brand palette from a logo, match a UI to a photograph, or sample the mood of a reference shot. The image is processed in your browser and returned as JSON, with no upload.

Frequently asked questions
What image formats are supported?
JPEG, PNG, and WebP. The tool reads the pixels and returns the dominant colors.
What does it output?
A JSON list of dominant colors as hex codes, ready to paste into CSS, a design app, or a config file.
How are the dominant colors chosen?
The tool clusters the image's pixels and reports the most prominent, vibrant colors rather than a simple average.
Is my image uploaded to extract the colors?
No. The analysis runs entirely in your browser, so the image stays on your device.
Can I get more or fewer colors?
The tool returns the dominant colors from the image; feed it a cleaner or more focused image to steer the result toward the tones you care about.
