Image Color Extractor

Upload an image to extract its dominant color palette.

Choose an image to extract its palette. Your image stays on your device.

Extract a Palette from an Image

Upload any photo, logo, or screenshot and this tool samples its pixels to pull out the dominant colors as a ready-to-use palette. It is perfect for matching a design to a brand image, building a theme from a photo, or grabbing a color you can see but don't have the value for.

How it works

  • Your image is drawn to a canvas in the browser
  • Pixels are grouped into color buckets
  • The most frequent buckets become your palette
  • Click any swatch to copy its HEX value

Best results

Images with a few distinct colors (logos, illustrations) yield the cleanest palettes; busy photos return their broad dominant tones.

Private & Processed Locally

Your image never leaves your device — it is read and analysed entirely in your browser using the Canvas API, and nothing is uploaded to any server.
