Image Color Palette Extractor

What is an Image Color Palette Extractor?

An image color palette extractor analyzes the pixels in a picture to determine its most dominant colors and outputs them as a hex code palette. This tool helps developers and designers quickly identify the primary colors used in any image or screenshot.

Using a lightweight k-means clustering algorithm, the extractor groups similar pixels together to find the true dominant colors. All processing happens entirely in your browser. No data is uploaded to any server. This tool is maintained by TestMu AI to assist teams building beautiful user interfaces.

How does the Color Palette Extractor work?

When you upload an image, it is drawn to a local canvas element within your browser. We sample the pixel data and apply a clustering algorithm that groups similar RGB values to identify the most frequent colors.

How to extract a color palette from an image

Generating a color palette takes just a few clicks:

• Upload an image: Upload a picture by dragging and dropping it into the tool.
• Adjust color count: Set the number of dominant colors you want to extract.
• Pick exact colors: Use the eyedropper to click on the image and pick exact hex codes.
• Copy or download: Copy the generated hex codes or download the palette as an image.
