Image Color Tools

Pick colors and extract palettes from your images

Image color tools let you sample colors directly from a photo or graphic. Upload an image and pick an exact pixel color, or extract a representative palette of its dominant colors. All processing happens in your browser using the Canvas API, so your image is never uploaded to a server. These tools are ideal for matching a color from a reference image or building a palette inspired by a photograph.
