How Color palette extractor works
Color palette extractor analyzes an image file you drop and returns the dominant colors as HEX swatches, the actual colors that make up the visual identity of a photo, a logo or a screenshot. It is the reverse of Color scheme: instead of generating colors from a base, it reads the colors already in an image.
This is the right tool when you want to match an existing brand, recreate a mood from a photograph, or build a design system that is rooted in real-world visuals. It samples pixels, groups similar colours with a quantization algorithm and ranks the clusters by pixel count, so a swatch only dominates if it genuinely fills the image.
