Frequently Asked Questions

Is the color picker free?

Yes — completely free, no account, no daily limit, no watermarks on exports.

Do my images get uploaded?

No. The image is decoded and analyzed entirely inside your browser. It never touches a server.

How does the automatic palette work?

We sample pixels across the image and run a median-cut quantization to find the most dominant colors. The result is sorted by luminance for a nice gradient look.

Can I pick a specific pixel?

Yes. Switch on Manual color picker in the right panel — your cursor turns into a loupe. Click anywhere on the image to capture that exact pixel into the active slot.

Which formats can I download?

Two exports: a PNG strip of the final palette, and a TXT file listing each color with its name, HEX, RGB and HSL values.

Which image formats are supported?

JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF and BMP. Anything the browser can decode natively.
