What does Palette Pro do?

Palette Pro extracts a colour palette from any image using one of four extraction methods, rather than just grabbing the most common pixels. "Most Dominant" returns the literal most frequent colours; "Vibrant" prioritises highly saturated colours even if they're rare in the image; "Muted" filters down to soft, desaturated tones; and "High Contrast" deliberately picks the lightest and darkest colours present, useful for building an accessible light/dark pairing.

The Scan Area slider lets you sample a vertical slice of the image rather than the whole thing — useful for pulling a palette from just the sky in a landscape photo, or just a product in a wider shot. Click any extracted swatch to copy its hex code straight to your clipboard.

Frequently asked questions

Is Palette Pro free to use?

Yes, completely free with no account or usage limit.

What's the difference between the four extraction modes?

Dominant returns the most frequently occurring colours as-is. Vibrant prioritises saturation, surfacing eye-catching colours even if they're a small part of the image. Muted filters to soft, low-saturation tones. High Contrast picks the lightest and darkest colours present, useful for accessible colour pairings.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No. All colour analysis happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API — your image never leaves your device.

What does the Scan Area slider do?

It moves a vertical sample strip across the image, so the palette is extracted from a specific section rather than the entire photo — useful for isolating a particular part of an image.

Can I copy the hex codes directly?

Yes — click any colour swatch in the results list and its hex code is copied straight to your clipboard.
