One image, six colours

That’s the palette.

Not a mock-up. This is what Palettae returns for the picture on the left, at the default six colours. Click any swatch to copy it.

A flat illustration of a roadside building at dusk: a coral billboard catching the last of the sun, teal windows, a blue van, and dusty orange ground under a fading blue sky.

Pick your colors. Copy what you need.

Four things, in the order you do them. None of them need an account.

  1. 01

    Extract

    Drop an image in. The palette appears straight away, sorted by how much of the picture each colour covers.

  2. 02

    Pick

    Point at the image to take a specific colour off it — the one on the sign, not the one behind it.

  3. 03

    Copy

    Click any swatch for its HEX. RGB, HSL, CSS and the whole palette at once are a click further.

  4. 04

    Download

    PNG, SVG, JSON, CSS variables, ASE for Adobe, or a card sized for sharing.

Your image never leaves your browser.

Palettae reads the pixels on your own device and works the palette out there. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is stored, and there is no account to make. The one exception is the optional image URL field, where our server fetches the image for you — everything else is local.

How it works · Privacy

No AI. Just the pixels.

There is no model here and no API call. Palettae counts the colours in your image and clusters them with median cut — the same family of algorithm image editors have used for decades — then drops the near-duplicates so you get six useful colours instead of five versions of the same beige.
