Frequently Asked Questions
How does the image color extraction work?
We use k-means clustering directly in your browser via the Canvas API. The algorithm analyzes every pixel of your image and groups similar colors together, then returns the 5 most dominant color clusters. All processing happens locally — your image never leaves your device.
What color harmony modes are available?
You can generate Complementary (2 opposite colors), Analogous (3 adjacent colors), Triadic (3 evenly spaced colors), and Split-Complementary (a color plus two adjacent to its complement) palettes. Each mode produces a harmonious 5-color palette.
Can I export the palette?
Yes! You can export your palette as a PNG image (perfect for sharing or mood boards) or as CSS custom properties ready to paste into your stylesheet. You can also click any individual color swatch to copy its HEX, RGB, or HSL value.
Is this tool really free with no ads?
