Dominant color grouping
Frequently occurring colors influence the result, while diversity logic avoids returning several nearly identical swatches.

Color Palette Generator
Images and pixels remain in browser memory and are never uploaded to any server.
The practical guide
Turn an image into a compact set of reusable color swatches.
The generator samples image pixels, groups similar colors, and returns a selected number of representative HEX swatches.
Choose palette size
A smaller palette emphasizes broad visual identity; a larger palette retains more accents and tonal variation.
Palette versus pixel picker
A palette summarizes the image. For the exact color at one location, use Image Color Picker instead.

Questions, answered
Frequently asked questions
Are these the exact most common pixels?
They are representative grouped colors, not a raw frequency list of every individual pixel value.
Can I copy the swatches?
Yes. Each displayed HEX color can be copied for use in design or code.
Why do two similar images produce different palettes?
Cropping, lighting, compression, and the proportion of colors all affect the sampled groups.
Does analysis leave my device?
No. Image decoding and color sampling happen locally.
