Extract dominant color palette from any image

About Color Extractor

Reverse-engineering a color palette from an image by hand with an eyedropper is slow and imprecise. The Color Extractor analyzes any image and pulls out its dominant colors, giving you a ready palette to reuse in a design, theme, or stylesheet.

Upload an image and the tool identifies the most prominent colors and presents them as a palette you can read off and reuse. It works in the browser with no signup and no watermark, so your image stays with you. This is perfect for matching a brand's colors from a logo, building a theme around a photo, or sampling reference art without manually pixel-picking each shade.

FAQ

How many colors does it extract?

It surfaces the dominant colors in the image as a palette, focusing on the most prominent shades rather than every pixel value.

What color format do I get?

The palette gives you the extracted colors so you can read and reuse their values, such as hex codes, in your own designs.

Does it work on photos as well as graphics?

Yes. It analyzes any image, though photos with many gradients will yield a broader, less uniform set of dominant colors than flat graphics.

Can I use Color Extractor on mobile?

Yes — ToolHub is fully responsive and works on iPhone, Android, tablets and all modern browsers. No app install needed.
