Why extract colours from an image?
Designers use image colour extraction to build palettes from inspiring photos, match a brand's colours from a logo, or pull a cohesive scheme from artwork. Because this tool runs entirely in your browser, you can do all of that privately — your images are never uploaded or stored.
Frequently asked questions
How does it pull colours from an image?
Your browser reads the image's pixels on a canvas and groups them into a handful of representative colours using a median-cut algorithm. It all happens on your device.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is read locally in your browser and never sent to any server — it stays completely private.
How many colours can I extract?
Choose 4, 5, 6, 8 or 10 colours. More colours capture finer detail; fewer give you the dominant tones.
What image formats work?
Common web formats like JPG, PNG and WebP all work. For best results use a clear image with distinct colours.
How do I use the palette?
Click any colour to copy its HEX code, or use 'Copy all HEX' to grab the whole palette at once.
