Image Color Palette extracts the dominant colours from an image into a usable palette with HEX and RGB values — the quick way to build a colour scheme from a photo, design, or brand image.
It analyses the image's pixels and groups similar shades to surface the defining colours, much as a designer would pull a scheme from a reference. That gives you a cohesive set of image-derived colours to work with rather than guessing combinations that may or may not harmonise.
To use a palette, treat the dominant colour as your base and build outward — a dominant, one or two secondaries, and an accent is a reliable structure. One caveat: extracting from a compressed image, screenshot, or anti-aliased logo can shift values slightly, so for exact brand colours consult the official brand guide, while for inspiration and matching the extracted palette is perfect.
The analysis runs in your browser, so your image — possibly an unreleased design — stays private. For sampling a precise single pixel, the Color Picker is the companion tool; pair both with the Color Code Converter to translate values into the format your project needs.
