Image Color Palette Extractor

The Image Color Palette Extractor is a powerful tool for designers and developers to instantly generate a color scheme from any image.

How it works

This tool analyzes the pixels in your uploaded image to find the most dominant color and a set of complementary colors that form a palette. It uses the Color Thief algorithm to cluster similar colors together.

Use Cases

Web Design: Create a website color theme that matches your hero image or logo.
Digital Art: Extract colors from reference photos to use in your digital paintings.
Brand Identity: Ensure consistency by pulling exact color codes from brand assets.

Supported Formats

You can upload JPEG, PNG, and WebP images. The tool runs entirely in your browser, so your images are processed locally and never uploaded to a server.
