How to use Color Palette Extractor

1. Drag and drop your image file (PNG, JPG, WebP, BMP, GIF) onto the drop zone in the center of the screen, or click to select a file.

3. Click the 'Extract Palette' button to analyze the image and display dominant colors in HEX, RGB, and HSL formats.
4. Use the copy button on each color to copy its code to the clipboard, or use CSS, JSON, or CSV export buttons to copy the entire palette in your preferred format.

Benefits of Color Palette Extractor

• [Dominant Color Extraction via Median Cut Algorithm] Rather than simple color sampling, this tool applies the Median Cut color quantization algorithm to analyze pixel data across the image and identify visually prominent colors. Even for photographs containing complex gradients and intricate color compositions, it generates practical color palettes for design review.
• [Three Format Simultaneous Display with One-Click Copy] All extracted colors are displayed simultaneously in three industry-standard formats: HEX codes optimized for web development, RGB values compatible with digital design tools, and HSL values convenient for fine color adjustments. A single click on the copy button next to each value instantly transfers it to your clipboard, ready to paste directly into VS Code, Figma, Adobe XD, Canva, or any tool in your current workflow.
• [Multiple Export Formats for Diverse Workflows] Export your extracted color palette in three powerful formats: CSS Variables for stylesheet design systems, JSON for programming and data workflows, and CSV for spreadsheet integration. Copy any format to your clipboard with a single click, enabling design system construction, development automation, and data analysis across your entire creative and technical workflow.
• [Review-Friendly Output for Sensitive Design Work] When working with unreleased product visuals, corporate brand guideline assets, or confidential client design materials, you can review extracted palettes while organizing color options. Before sharing or saving results, confirm the handling requirements for both the image and the extracted palette.
