Color Palette Extractor — Get Dominant Colors From an Image

Upload an image to extract its dominant colors as a ready-to-use palette with hex codes — useful for matching a design to a photo, building a theme from a logo, or just seeing what colors actually make up an image, computed entirely in your browser.

How to use Color Extractor

1. Upload your image.
2. Review the extracted dominant color palette.
3. Copy the hex codes you need.

Frequently asked questions

How are the dominant colors determined?

Pixel colors are sampled and clustered to find the most visually significant colors, rather than a simple average that would just produce a muddy midpoint colour.

Can I use this to build a website theme from a photo?

Yes — extracting a photo's dominant palette is a common way to derive a coherent colour scheme that matches a hero image or brand photo.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. Color extraction happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API pixel data.
