What you get for free

The extractor is funded by the principle that useful developer and designer tools should not require a credit card. Color extraction runs in your browser using the Canvas API and vanilla JavaScript — there is no server cost per request, which is what makes the fully-free model viable. You get K-means++ clustering with configurable color count (2–16), hex/RGB/HSL output for each color, percentage coverage per swatch, and one-click export to CSS, SCSS, JSON, SVG, and PNG — all without registration.

/* All export formats — free, no watermark */ CSS → :root { --color-1: #3a5a8c; ... } SCSS → $color-1: #3a5a8c; ... JSON → [{"hex":"#3a5a8c","rgb":[58,90,140],"pct":38.4}, ...] SVG → color swatch strip as vector file PNG → color swatch sheet as raster image

Frequently asked questions

What exactly is free — are there hidden limits?

Everything is free with no hidden limits. Color extraction, all export formats (CSS, SCSS, JSON, SVG, PNG swatches), copy-to-clipboard, unlimited images — all included at no cost, with no account and no subscription.

Is there a limit on how many images I can process?

No. You can extract palettes from as many images as you like in a single session. There is no daily quota, no rate limit, and no watermark on exported files. Processing happens in your browser so the only constraint is your device's memory.

How does a free browser tool compare to paid palette generators?

Paid tools typically add collaboration features, cloud storage, or team sharing. For extracting colors from an image and getting hex codes, a browser-based tool is just as accurate as any paid alternative — the underlying K-means algorithm is the industry standard regardless of pricing tier.
