How to use the color palette extractor

Operational steps for Color Palette Extractor—control labels and workflows only. Overview and examples stay on the homepage.

How it works

  1. Drop an image onto the stage or click to choose a file (JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF).
  2. Wait a moment while the tool downsamples the image and clusters dominant colors.
  3. Adjust the color count (3–10), sort order, and optional near-white / near-black exclusion in Options.
  4. Copy a single hex, or copy the whole palette as CSS variables or a JSON array.
  5. Reload clears the image — only your options preferences are remembered on this device.
