How color extraction works

The tool samples pixels across your image and groups similar tones using k-means clustering. Dominant clusters become your palette — the 5–8 colors that define the image's visual identity. Results include HEX, RGB, and HSL values ready for CSS, Figma, or any design tool. Learn more in our color palette extraction guide.

What designers use it for

Build a brand palette from product photography, match website colors to hero images, or analyze competitor visual identity. Click any swatch to copy its value. Export the full palette as JSON for your design system. Pair it with the Quality Analyzer to check resolution and sharpness alongside your color workflow.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does color extraction work?

The tool samples pixels across the image and groups similar colors using k-means clustering. The largest clusters become your dominant colors.

What color formats are provided?

HEX for web/CSS, RGB for programming and editing, and HSL for creating color variations. Click any swatch to copy.

How many colors should I extract?

3–5 for a focused brand palette, 8–10 for a comprehensive breakdown. More colors captures subtlety but can be harder to work with.

Can I use extracted colors commercially?

Yes. Color values are not copyrightable. Extract from any image and use the palette in your designs, websites, or branding.

Why do results vary between uploads?

K-means uses random starting points, so minor variations are normal. Dominant colors will be consistent — only edge cases may shift slightly.
