Image Color Extractor

Upload a photo and pull out its most common colors. Everything happens locally — your image is never sent anywhere.

What this is useful for

Pulling colors directly from a photo is a fast way to build a palette that already looks cohesive — a sunset photo, a product shot, or a piece of art all carry color relationships that are hard to invent from scratch. Designers use this for moodboards; marketers use it to pick on-brand colors that match a campaign photo.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. The image is read directly in your browser using the Canvas API and never leaves your device.

Why don't the extracted colors exactly match what I see in the photo?

Colors are grouped into buckets before counting, so very close shades are merged together. This avoids returning five near-identical colors and gives a more useful, distinct set instead.
